      That’s like me at the stop light trying to predict when it will change. “1, 2, 3… change”…“1, 2, 3…change”. “1, 2, 3 change” light changes. I feel smug in my elite ability to predict the change.

        You’re very correct. The market is very much a predator and prey relationship, and the justifications afterwards are for the fans at home. I once saw the whole market tilt because one man (Bill Hwang) lost his leveraged multibillion dollar position.
