Traffic on Route 80 came to a halt this week as a 250-pound bear decided to climb a telephone pole and make obscene gestures at passing cars. When someone got too close to him while taking photos, the bear descended, crossed the highway, and climbed another pole. Game wardens decided against shooting him with tranks because they were worried about the bear being injured by the fall. As Route 80 is the main road from Interstate 10 to Benson, Bisbee, Tombstone, Douglas and Mejico, it was pretty disruptive. After about forty minutes, the bear climbed down and disappeared into the brush.
Covid has affected the bears' behaviors as the state parks have been closed or open on limited basis.

That is a big bear, especially for the northeast.

Agreed, a very large bear, although sometimes the perspective of the camera can make an object look larger (or smaller) than it really is. Still, I wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley.

Black: fight back. Brown: lay down. White: Good night.

Nope. I somehow recovered most of my market losses last week!

Me too, but casino losses were larger than the recovery

Boy do I hope I am wrong, but I am sensing the market is just tapped out at this point and do for a major correction. Repeating do I ever hope I am wrong.

There are increasingly bearish rumblings. Since 1950, the average Year Two Bull is +13%. But my June gain will likely equal May, so I’m not exactly expecting a hot summer.

Yep. I've lost 1.2% of my funds since my last post, so this may be my last aggressive month.
