WTI Drops Back Below $83; S&P 500 Closes Above 5,500 For First Time Since JPow Highlights Inflation Progress -- His Comments Today Were Viewed As Hawkish -- July 2, 2024

Locator: 48038INV.

Tech: this is a tease. Sorry. But I have family commitments and won't get back to this until later this evening. [Later: comments posted here.]

I made a "huge mistake" with regard to tech. In the big scheme of things, it's not a "mistake per se" and to what degree it is, it's a "good mistake," if there's such a thing as a "good mistake" with regard to investing. Hint: it has to do with my comments regarding Nvidia and AMD and how they differ.
JPow: comments today suggest JPow is not going to cut rates any time soon. He seems "angry" about something. If not "angry," at least frustrated. Corroborates my commentary from a couple days ago.

My hunch: JPow is getting a lot of flack from politicos -- high rates are costing the government lots of money in interest. Based on his statements today. Think about it. What would the interest payments be if interest rates were 0% or 1% compared with 5% now?


AAPL: if "Fast Money" folks talked about AAPL today, I missed it. I saw most of the program, but missed the first twenty minutes.
