Investing: The Big Stories Today -- Tech, Copper, And Oil -- The Bakken With Three New Permits; MRO Reports Two DUCs Completed -- April 1, 2024

Locator: 46887B.

NASDAQ eked out a gain. That is simply amazing. After all the chatter for the past three days, TSLA finished absolutely flat. Movers and shakers already know the deliveries / sales numbers that will be released tomorrow.

More on this later. Going to pick up Sophia, but the tech story was very, very interesting today.

Not all tech is the same, not all chips are the same. 

But other than that, today's market didn't tell us a thing except that investors are still bullish on stocks. The Dow was down for a reason. But all-in-all, the bull market is "broadening" out. 

DJT plummets. Market cap / valuation dropped $1 billion.

I first started investing in AMD back in 1994 after reading an article in Scientific American. Never sold, just kept buying.

  1. McBride... "A little something for everyone".... six section spacing... seems a bit strange.

  2. So, out of curiosity, why the huge spacing on an area with proven wells? Inquiring minds want to know...

    1. Sorry for the delay. I went to bed early. I will provide the explanation later today -- although by now, you have probably answered your own question.
