Should I be shocked? Surprised? Dumbfounded? Awed?

Call me when we drop 10-20%...now THAT would be worth noticing...

Well, maybe so... but there were only 2-3 of us that said the market was going up, and it seemed like an army of others that said no, can't be... one guy even said 'I know why your nickname is reckless'... stuff like that.

So fine. You're right. The market has in fact been going up since 1972 ... err, I mean, since 2009.

I simply must have read it all wrong then when people said to me in early November 2016 that the world is coming to an end, the market is soooooo overvalued. Stuff like that. No big deal, of course, since no one pays any attention to what I say anyway....

Ok then...

You seem to imply that the confidence in TRUMP is the "driving force". But, oddly enough, I don't recall any compliments here going OBAMA's way during the stock market's stratospheric rise after he was elected.

Thank you, Obama.

What you say I 'seem to imply' is factually and patently incorrect.

I have been contributing posts on financial matters and stock investing on this PA site for many years in case you never read any of my posts. That's OK, of course. It's no big deal. I am just saying so to set the record straight.

While I never said Trump is the 'driving force' of the trillion+ dollar increase in stock values since his election, I DO IMPLY and feel that this record setting stock market has been basically ignored -- and that's probably because of their hatred for Trump.

Because it's propped up by printed money. Notice how suddenly Yellen is way more open to increasing interest rates? They set Trump up perfectly.

Do we have a wager?

Randall, after I made my absolutely fabulous, spot-on 'generational buying opportunity' prediction on or about Nov. 3, 2016, you basically called me dope and a knucklehead. You also suggested that I should get out of all my stock holdings. And you told all of us that I will thank you later for this advise! (A line that I will forever remember as the most ridiculous and funny suggestion ever offered me.)

Randall, in the 10 weeks since my absolutely fabulous 'generational buying opportunity' call the general market has increased over $2.2 trillion dollars! Did you notice that?

Not once since all this prosperity began did you extend even a simple courtesy to me that I made a good call. Not once, never.

But yet today, after another record day in the stock market, you now want to bet me $500 that the market will tank 20 per cent.

You should be ashamed of yourself for trying to rope me into this stupid bet -- especially after the market has already risen in value by over $2.2 trillion dollars since my tremendous, absolutely fabulous, 'generational buying opportunity' call on Nov. 3 or so.

We do not have a wager. What do you think I am, a dope?

Yes.....BTW, nice call.....I guess?

i love a stock that has a market cap of $15 million, but it trades under a penny.

99.9% of any company that trades this low is generally just a pump and dump. but this one is a legit company in the cyber security field with patents and patents pending. they also have some patent infrindgement cases alive, they have won a few of them already.

Strikeforce is the name of the company ticker SFOR

i wish i could call this one a living lock, but its pretty close.

This is the same market that sold OFF in a panic when the election became clear. Reversed quickly to their credit.
