I just bought AR at $36.01 this morning! Natty gas is over $8 and will easily go over $10 before fall. AR has ZERO % of their production hedged. Not sure if you are in deep enough to realize what that means; especially when most of the competition is heavily hedged around $4?
AR closed at $40.05 today > https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/AR and natty gas at $8.85! Like KC says:
 
The Bear Markets of 2000 - 2002 and 2008 had massive drops in the indexes and there was not a depression.

Recessions are normal.

Yes, those were both 50% drops and what bury is forecasting would be a 62% drop. Not as bad as I thought at first glance, but still a monster decline.

Anyway, I don't think it will go down that far, but wouldn't be surprised with a 50% decline by the time all is said and done.

The key is to have some dry powder (cash) ready to put to work at the bottom.

Even better, is to have rolled into stocks that are going up in/against the Brandon Debacle! Inflation is eating your cash up at over 10%/year!! Energy is making new 52 week highs day in and day out!!
 
True, but the question is when?
Mike Wilson at Morgan Stanley says S&P 500 at 3400 by end of summer.

Morgan Stanley strategists led by Michael J. Wilson wrote in a Monday research note that they expect the S&P 500 to fall to 3,400 by the end of the summer, or another roughly 14% from current levels, as earnings growth and consumer spending slow.

A similar collection of quotes exists for buy recommendations for Enron stock along with a chart overlay. I will see if I can find it.

- Myron E. Forbes, President, Pierce Arrow Motor Car Co., January 12, 1928

"No Congress of the United States ever assembled, on surveying the state of the Union, has met with a more pleasing prospect than that which appears at the present time. In the domestic field there is tranquility and contentment...and the highest record of years of prosperity. In the foreign field there is peace, the goodwill which comes from mutual understanding."

"There may be a recession in stock prices, but not anything in the nature of a crash."

I originally thought we would bottom in October but it might take longer. A 9 month Bear market is not that long.

Manchin wants to raise taxes and use half for deficit reduction but I think he might be alone. Fiscal policy is a joke.

The key is the Fed. So far the Fed has been asleep at the wheel. I hope they do 100 basis points and say they are prepared to follow up with another 100 basis points in July and September. We will know on Wednesday.

Jeremy Grantham says we are in a bubble that is bursting. Here are several interviews he has done in recent months and one from early last year. In the interview with Australian tv, he says that a 50% drop in the stock market from it's peak would not surprise him. That would take the S&P down to 2380.

This makes a lot of sense. We had quantitative easing galore to inflate us out of the 2008 recession and we piled a lot of money printing on top of that in the last 10 years. Some of it was justified to keep the economy from imploding during the pandemic and some of it was an unnecessary gift to Wall Street with the repeated "Fed Put" that kept the markets from going through a needed and healthy correction.

Thanks for posting.

Amazon fell 94% in the Dot-Com Bear Market. 50% - 80% drop is easy to see.

Stay in cash and keep your powder dry.

I have watched three of the five videos I posted. The two Bloomberg interviews are 40 minutes each. I will get to them sometime this week. In the Australian interview, he said that he thought it would be a slow grind down and not a sharp crash. He said that stimulus has put a lot of money in pockets and people can't help themselves from buying the dip.

Off to a roaring start this morning. Futures already down about 600 points.
I’ll stay home and not use my $5 gas to go to the store and buy groceries that are already more than they were last week. 🤬

Eh, I've done better than you over a significant time period. I am willing to gamble a bit, and have done well enough in the past to do that. If XIN survives which I strongly think it will, it will be worth more than 10 cents on the dollar. Show me anything in the US market that is anywhere close to those valuations. The company has been a mess due to its own doing and also the property market sector in China. China is already starting to support the property market and XIN has 2 years to get their balance sheet in order, so essentially they have a pretty long road way.

If I am going to gamble I would rather do it on something that the valuations are in my favor, than the high flyer growth stocks of last fall.
Show me anything in the Chinese economy that tells the truth....

Amgen 1990...breaking out just as the NASDAQ bottomed. NASDAQ is the light grey graph at the top of the chart.

 
Higher low and then an uptrend but not much volume
