I traveled to Kingsville, Texas this weekend for the HOF Induction of my 1984 cross country teams at Texas A&M-Kingsville at D2 school. I planned to run a 5k while here, but the race was cancelled with near freezing temperatures.
Got home late Sat night from our first and last cruise ( Mediterranean ), missed all the weather drama in Central Texas last week.
Beats me, I've been away recently and the only equity exposure we have is 2 stocks my wife inherited from her stepfather some years back worth +$40,000 and pay $2400 a year in dividends. No more skin in the game. As I said a while back, I went Andew Mellon. (Actually, when Mellon said liquidate stocks, he meant inventory ).

I have to say with the higher humidity and wind chill from the front seemed colder than Idaho. I understand you have 70s and 80s coming this week.

Earlier in February, we had a week were every day was in the 80s! I had to change my nom de plume (guerre?) because LR.C isn't working on Firefox and I have to use MSFT Bing.
Fast running from DGD masters. As for myself pretty slow, but picking up training once I met a 77 and 80 year old near my house. Sounds funny but these guys are pretty fit and regularly cover 7 miles three days a week. They do the Galloway Run-Walk using a Gym Boss timer: 1:15 run-0:15 walk; equates to about 84% running which I think is good for our ages.

Keep up the good work. It's not easy fighting the injuries, aches and pains, loss of motivation, etc. There's just seems to be fewer of us each year - I've seen so many hang up the running shoes.
I'm fortunate that in my group, the specific group I run with has a number of very good 70+ runners, some who compete nationally and a few more regionally.
You know, just being able to do it is no small feat after a while, by any consideration. I try not to forget that.
I have in my head what I think I can do age graded or time wise at soon to be 75. None of those thoughts amount to much without the work done. So for me it is a matter of logging the miles, which also has the obvious health benefits. I enjoy the challenges of interval training, but realize this must be tempered by my vintage.
SP500 is down just 4% and the greed and fear index is already in 'extreme fear'
which suggests it will not fall a lot more.
I honestly think that people around the world are selling US stocks, saying that the US is not a trustoworthy or serious country anymore. When trust goes, it goes very quickly.
European stocks rising very quicckly...smells to me like an asset shift away from the US to Europe.
CNN’s Fear & Greed Index is a way to gauge stock market movements and whether stocks are fairly priced. The index uses seven market indicators to help answer the question: What emotion is driving the market now?
CNBC's @jimcramer just put the nail in the $MSTR coffin. He said, "I'm not worried about @Saylor, he's a survivor." He also said he wasn't worried about Bear Stearns, days before it went bankrupt.

In that Trump has been in office for about 1 month, looking at 1 month returns, it seems that Europe doing the best, then value about flat, and slightly lower is SNP 500, then Nasdaq, then small cap lowest (of those mentioned).
So, in descending order from highest to lowest, over 1 month:
