MLB: a reader corrected me with regard to my comments on MLB and coronavirus; the reader was spot on. I was wrong. On top of that, the WSJ is now reporting the entire "season" is in jeopardy. My hunch we will know sooner than later. This does not bode well for the NBA. Nor the NFL. And Google: has formally announced that its employees will work from home through July, 2021. At least we've flattened the curve.
Goldilocks: my favorite word when used along with the phrase, "stock market rally." From Investor's Business Daily: Dow Jones futures: a Goldilocks stock market rally? GOP stimulus plan unveiled, Pfizer vaccine starts phase 3 trail. From the linked article:
The coronavirus stock market rally over the past couple of weeks could be shifting to a slightly cooler pace. But that could be a Goldilocks stock market scenario in which the major indexes advance at a modest rate, letting leading stocks run relatively safely.
Pfizer stock, McDonald's stock and Visa stock are near buy points, though their relative strength lines show that these DJIA components have not been coronavirus market rally leaders. Zebra stock, also near a buy point, has a stronger RS line. AudioCodes stock and AMD stock are extended. Dexcom stock is just above a buy point while Masimo stock has formed a new handle in its consolidation.
Lululemon stock, Shopify stock, Apple stock and Dexcom stock are on IBD Leaderboard. Masimo stock is on the IBD Long-Term Leaders list. AudioCodes stock, AMD stock and DXCM stock are on the IBD 50.

Milk: this is a most interesting story, also in the WSJ -- Walmart / Kroger are bottling their own milk and shaking up the American dairy industry. Very, very interesting. If a gallon of milk is really priced at $1.19 -- wow. I just checked the ads for our neighborhood grocer: $2.69 for one gallon. Walmart / Kroger selling it for less than half the best price in our neighborhood store. Hmmm.
And finally, this, also from the WSJ: Planned Parenthood throws Margaret Sanger under the bus.
All my information regarding Planned Parenthood and "the pill" was through the mainstream media all these years. But then last year, or thereabouts, I came across Jonathan Eig's The Birth of the Pill, c. 2014. Wow, that really helped me put the story in perspective.
It is amazing, looking back on the birth control pill, how my coming of age years were literally "before the pill" and "after the pill." High school, before the pill; college, after the pill. Or something like that.
