The morning after. . .

It’s 7:00 AM and futures are up.

I think the word ‘crash’ is thrown around far too easily by reporters with a limited vocabulary and/or limited market experience — and especially by those with a certain angle.

Last Friday was a hiccup but my boring old dividend favorite closed near its all-time high. Yesterday, lower but not by much. It will be OK. Meanwhile, the dividends will continue to Tide its investors over.

Knowing yourself and knowing what you own and why helps.

A lot of posters on this site have seen decades of the market and are acting accordingly.

Time will tell — said Boomer, stating the obvious.
