Thanks, Ernie. There's certainly a lot to be hopeful about!

The metrics that Igy used to cute are trending positive. Let’s see how he spins this.

A couple of DGTD stocks illustrate the problem, MSFT Net Income was $21.2 Billion in 2017 and $21.9 Billion in 2013. Debt rose in that period from $24.5 Billion to $104 Billion. During the same period MCD Net Income fell from $28.1 Billion to $22.8 Billion, while debt rose from $14.1 Billion to $29.5 Billion. Rising debt fueled stock buybacks at ever higher prices and inflating the EPS numbers. At the same time the S&P 500 EPS rose 9.6% driven in part by the same dynamics, while the Index price rose 44.6%.

So the geniuses of DGTD continue to believe that there is no pay back to paying more for a stock to receive less. This week’s minor decline in the market makes only a small dent in the valuation extreme. Even a very generous cycle multiple of 16.5 multiplied by previous 52 weeks GAAP EPS of $122.48 gives you a fair value S&P 500 of 2,020. So we have a way to go, whether that is next month or over the next year. By the way markets don’t just mean revert, they mean invert. A market decine similar to the Tech or Housing Bubble would take the S&P 500 to lower than 1,000.

You can only keep hoping and cross your fingers you won’t be the one holding the bag.

Good luck.

Is your self-image so low that you have to make up stories about other posters to make yourself feel less inadequate?

Could you be any more unclear? I assume English is your second language.

I can’t believe people continue to put up with this level of incompetence.

It was about your reply where you once again fabricated things in an effort to support your weak position. Try to keep up.

Igy’s wife doesn’t allow him to post much on weekends. And K5’s mother sets similar restrictions.

Don’t forget the Go Fats guy pressing his Brady Jacket for Sunday. DD looking for his Igy infatuation under his safe space. Irony Mann helping the Go Fats guy get ready. And lastly the Oh Snap! Troll buckling his britches after water his tree. None these gents has a woman, at least not in the traditional sense, perhaps the inflatable type.

Again your fantasies about others illustrates your desperation in dragging others down to your level. Post such as yours only serve to illustrate the depths of your despair. You are a sad little man.

You respond to every post which reveals your own infatuation. Remember, I was here first. You followed me here.

DD your infatuation is under your safe space.

There’s ample evidence to suggest that they are the same person.
