Uncle Mike on the investment horizon.



How do I feel about the market right now?  I am the lion and I have been at rest. 

I will summarize this statement and my market commentary with a quote from one of my favorite movies, Pool Hall Junkies, written by Mars Callahan:




"You watch those nature documentaries on the cable?  You see the one about lions? 

This lion, is the king of the jungle, huge mane out to here. He’s laying down under a tree, in the middle of Africa. He’s so big. So hot. He doesn’t want to move. Now, the little lions come they start messing with him, biting his tail biting his ears, he doesn’t do anything... the lioness, she starts messing with him, coming over making trouble. Still, nothing.  Now, the other animals they notice. And they start to move in. The jackals, hyenas, they’re barking at him, laughing at him. They nip his toes, and eat the food, and get in his domain. They do this, and get closer and closer and bolder and bolder ’til one day, that lion gets up and tears the shit outta’ everybody. Runs like the wind. Eats everything in his path, ’cause every once in a while, the lion has to show the jackals, who he is. It’s too late to be scared. It’s time to kill."

Christopher Walken (Uncle Mike) 


Be the lion.   Go make some money.
