Re-Opening Ripper

By -

Well, I guess all the chatter about “re-opening America” has people ga-ga over stocks even more than they have been over the past few weeks……….

RIPPER

So, let’s see the assumptions here:

  1. We’re going to re-open everything immediately;
  2. Everyone will instantly go back to work like before;
  3. People will resume their old habits of eating out, going to concerts, and shopping just like before;
  4. The virus is gone forever;
  5. Valuations will return even higher than they were before.

OK!

On top of all that, I guess since the first $23 trillion in debt wasn’t enough, they want to throw another $2 trillion on the pile for “infrastructure“. So, as I’m typing this, the ES and NQ are up 2% and nearly 3%, respectively.

It’s been quite a ride since March 23.

As for me, I had a profitable Thursday, and I remain 160% committed on individual issues (no ETFs). Let’s see how this whole “re-opening” thing pans out.
