I just fish now. Of course I think I'm the best. I can't process money. No one catches a super grand slam. Every day. My serious problems are women. They lie. David, I know it’s hard to resist young women but as you get older you may want to consider a more mature woman that is looking for stability instead of material things. All women want something just like guys want something too out of the relationship. I just like having someone that loves me. Takes care of me when I’m sick and I do the same for her when she’s sick. Getting old is not easy and it’s nice to have some stability in your life. You are arguably my best friend. I know better. I'm embarrassed . love you, and thank you for the pep talk.

I just want the best for you. I don’t judge people for what may have happened in the past. Half of my friends that I grew up with in Key West did time for smuggling. They just got caught up in the easy money thing in the’70s. They are still good people. Wishing you the best. BTW, I may be a functioning alcoholic too as I enjoy a few drinks every evening before dinner.

Our investment advisor is selling Nvidia and other AI-relateds and buying energy - Exxon, Chevron, etc. With the exception of Apple and Google I've been out for a while. Been holding CTRA, CEG, IEO and TTE for a while. What about utilities? Only thing I've got is a little bit of Southern Co. Less than 1% of the portfolio.

Silver has kinda stuck up on me."Silver prices finished higher Thursday to notch a sixth consecutive session gain and their highest settlement in nearly 3 years." "On Comex, the most-active May silver contract SI00, +1.30% SIK24, +1.30% climbed 19 cents, or 0.7%, to settle at $27.25 an ounce, trading 9.4% higher week to date, according to Dow Jones Market Data. Prices settled at their highest since June 16, 2021." “Up until a couple of weeks ago, silver wasn’t finding much love,” he said. “But stronger industrial data from China has boosted demand for industrial materials like copper and silver.” “Silver has a lot of catching up to do on the upside, and this week’s technical breakout from a multi-year consolidation phase may well be the start of a long bull market,” he said." www.marketwatch.com/story/silver-prices-are-nearing-a-three-year-high-a-long-bull-market-may-be-close-behind-ea2dc2e2?mod=mw_more_headlines

Have you seen gold the last 6 Mos?? Goodness You can honestly thank Bidenomics for the rise in gold prices. Inflation does that.

By sure luck I liquidated a bit yesterday, this market has me very confused. 4.7% T bond looks enticing.

GLD has done well the last year or so. I still look at it as a hedge though.
Money supply, inflation, world tensions, efforts to replace the dollar all impact gold.
Gold has actually been pretty stable since the mid 20s.

Ferris I was doing some checking of my record over the last 15 years. Schwab says I have averaged around 13 to 13.5% over that period, which was mostly raging bull market. At only 67 not sure I want too much in fixed income

At 67 I felt the same way. I didn't get conservative until I was 72/73 and I sold the company.
