It has definitely been crazy, doubling in the past 2 months

I tend to look more short term as it suits my style for stocks. I love looking at the patterns and trends. It would not surprise me to see it consolidate at some point like it did the second half of last year (when it was bouncing between $400-500). That would be a good sign before the next leg up. But until that happens it will be interesting to see what it does and how volatile the action is. The next two weeks should be very telling for what comes next (especially with the Fed talking next week).

Hyperinflation is 3.5% - 5%? Expected to drop to 2.4% in 2024. Nope...**

Hokebury • 03/11/24 12:30 PM ET
doesn't change the fact the inflation numbers by the gov't aren't accurate

You're old enough to remember the Nixon/Ford/Carter hyper inflation years

Mortgage loans got up to 18% at one point. Delayed buying a house until 86.
TomTurkey • 03/11/24 03:56 PM ET
I had a 13% mortgage during that time (also a 18% 20 year IRA CD)**

That's why I will probably never move, at this point.
