No need to, I bought in 1982.
Oh SNAP!

You’ve only bought once in the last 35 years? No wonder people here think you’re a fool.
Weak.
Banks buying stocks, central or otherwise, always leads to a happy ending.

Not as weak as you making unfounded presumptions about other posters like mellon. It’s not much fun when the shoes on the other foot, is it.

Ah, like you, he’s done that for years. So you both have several pairs on the other foot. No wonder you run so slow.

Thanks for proving my point.
Oh, Snap!
Well, the aggregate indexes that I follow have bested me this year.
Incredible! Even though I had faith, and even posted about where the markets would go and why, I had yet more faith in my ability to generate a good return, with a ton more work but with far less risk.
I knew the markets would rise, but I didn't foresee by how much. I also knew BTC would rise and I bought and sold, but like with equities I'm thinking about buying again. I posted about bubbles before, and about my opinion that they can go sky-high depending on who's doing the inflating. I lived through the Vancouver housing rise, and my entire family lived through the Toronto housing rise.
IMO both cryptos (some of them) and US equities (and equities in select other markets) can still go significantly higher. I was looking at some fancy property somewhere, but the liquidity and transaction fees afforded by the equity markets are unmatched in my experience.
So there you have it. One of the few years in which I have been beaten by the markets. Great for you guys if you were in. I am now looking for long-term parking places for money, and I must say that certain markets are still looking attractive.
The research showed that it doesn’t pay to sell out of the equity market just because it has become “expensive.” Investors haven’t improved their returns by switching to bonds in these cases, and switching to cash produced significantly worse results. Our conclusion is that broad asset allocation changes aren’t warranted.

I thought you and your clones don’t trust Wall Street, but then you lap up their propaganga and products.
What gives?
Oh Snap!
Here you go Maserati, this one is for you:

JPMorgan's Marko Kolanovic, whose latest notes have spurred market moves, said the stock market is underpricing the probability of tax reform passing.
Historical trends for November and December suggest that the market should drift higher going into 2018 anyway, Kolanovic said.
Only a few factors mainly tied to central banks could derail this thesis, Kolanovic told CNBC.
Naturally CNBC, the Wall Street mouthpiece, gives his note a more bullish twist.

Those are his own words, not CNBC's.
What I posted is what he said. Your’s was the watered down Bob Pisani version.
