volatility

Today started early. I woke up 5:30 and wasn’t able to go back to sleep. I feel the market calling me. As I look at my phone I see that wholesale inflation fell 0.5% in July - another sign that inflation may be easing. Also another big news, Disney reported their earnings yesterday and they reported an increase in their streaming subscriber numbers and will be raising prices.

At the start of the day, it looked like it was going to be a good day. Market numbers came out the gate strong but ended pretty flat. At the end of the day the DOW was up only .08% and NASDAQ down .58%. Account closed at $6,940.

Volatility these days can make it really challenging to make any moves, but I believe, as inflation eases, that confidence is coming back into the market. I’m optimistic the market will end this year strong. And my goal to 90 mill is intact.
