1. It was just too good

Normally I wouldn't post two Bennett toons in a row, but this one was just too good to pass up.

Have a good week, everyone!

2. I use the weekends

to gather enough perspective from an established round of gurus so I'm not too surprised. Deflation, soft pricing from houses to autos to lumber to commodities was the general theme this weekend based on soft consumer spending and end of government support for unemployment and restaurants. I dialed everything back about 50% but still worry about exposure in Nasdaq, and Russell which have been softening for months.
