Futures -- October 15, 2017

Updates

October 16, 2017: the trillion dollar club.  Add Edward Jones to the $1 trillion club. Also, just making the cut: Wellington Management, Northern Trust, and PGM.

Later, 11:08 p.m. Pacific Coast time: it's now almost midnight and I have not checked the NFL scores for today and find that I do not miss the league at all. Surfing through the internet I see that Aaron Rogers was injured, but that's about all I know. I don't even know if the Green Bay Packers won or lost, and I have no interest.

Original Post 

Another NFL-free Sunday; played a new board game with extended family in Portland, OR: "The Quest for El Dorado." An incredibly fun game to play. It's a new game and has been getting good reviews.

Checking futures. Futures don't mean squat, but right now S&P 500; Nasdaq; and, the Dow futures are all green. WTI (futures) is up almost 1% -- flirting with $52.

Time stamp/date: the tea leaves suggest before the end of the year (2017), Tesla is going to announce some serious news about its future.

Hepatitis A: Governor Jerry Brown declares a state of emergency in California / hepatitis. I find it interesting that no one (at least mainstream media) is talking about the reason for the epidemic. This is not rocket science.
