Notes From All Over, Part 1 -- November 13, 2019

Market: I followed futures overnight and all I saw was "red." So, now, with nothing else to do, I checked in on the market. Wow, wow, wow. Who wudda thought. All major indices again hitting new highs. And best of all, a stock I was following hit "my" buy point; and, coincidentally, dividends paid in the past few days allowed me to execute. Seldom happens. LOL.

• DIS: I happened to mention this one in passing last week; just saying;
• AAPL: this is most surprising; up another $2.43; who would have thought?
• SRE: up $1.73; flirting with new highs
• D: ditto
• EW: ditto
• ENB: up about a percent
• CVX: up nicely but still below it's 52-week high
• Fed's Powell was really, really reassuring:
• he likes where the US economy is right now
• he doesn't want to jeopardize the market by raising interest rates
• no real need to see rates go up any time in the near future

 Cold and flu season: RBG misses work due to an "illness."

Dow: all-time intra-day high -- up "triple-digit" -- 1:52 p.m. EST -- November 13, 2019. Futures were negative overnight after Trump's "nothing-burger" speech yesterday; today, traders loved the remarks of the Fed chairman who suggested GDP was trending up.
