Interesting… felt like I was reading a confession
Anyway, when you said, “I’ve been expecting a decent sized dip for the index for months, but we’ve only seen small movements that keep inching higher week after week” it reminded me of the importance of knowing the trend and using it to your advantage. When the trend breaks… don’t hang on!
