One Entire Life of Miscalculations

Added on August 2, 2016 by C. Maoxian.

Love Kat Edmonson's voice and this song, though that shirt is unfortunate and the whirling around and around camera is amateurville ... just close your eyes and listen.

ETF Trading Portfolio Update -- August 1, 2016

Added on August 1, 2016 by C. Maoxian.

No changes this week. Note that the XIV has lost nearly 60% without reversing -- trend trading leveraged ETFs off the weekly chart not for the faint of heart.

Emerging Markets Run About Done

Added on July 30, 2016 by C. Maoxian.

Here's my view of the Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets ETF (ticker symbol: VWO). It has had a pretty good run off the January low and is approaching some target reversal zones. It could run all the way up to near $41 without invalidating the sacred idiot wave rules, but I'll be monitoring it closely in coming weeks for a reversal, and you should too!

When the dentist was stitching up my gum this morning after an apicoectomy, he put the hook through my upper lip. That hurt. A lot.

This Path I've Taken Ain't Goin' Nowhere

Added on July 27, 2016 by C. Maoxian.

No good live version of this song on YouTube so I'm forced to embed a faulty-lyrics version ... love the song, listened a hundred times on repeat since Spotify suggested it via the Weekly Discover algo, bless the algo. (Ojai is an hour east of Santa Barbara.)

Did the lyrics by ear, so hope it's up to everyone's standards.

Movies Watched -- The Diary of a Teenage Girl

Added on July 27, 2016 by C. Maoxian.

I liked this one. It's a story about a teenage girl's sexual life (safely set in 1976 San Francisco), from her perspective ... a "coming of age" tale, though I hate that term ... what's refreshing about this movie is its honesty ... it's not judgmental or moralizing about a lot of the decisions (and mistakes) Minnie makes. And it's funny!

Mainstream audiences will have a big problem with it, the folks in Omaha are not going to be comfortable watching this one. (For those who have seen it: I would like to point out that Monroe was basically a good guy, and the whole trajectory of Minnie's life would be different if he had been a terrible guy, right? So she was lucky in that sense....)

Just over 100 minutes so just the right length. Green rating, recommended.
