a Las Vegas icon ... now at Resorts World

China's momentum is fading ... growth slowing down

funny for last one year, the financial media and experts were talking about a recession in US; the topic was beaten so much that they have stopped talking about it ... while the market continues to rise and just about there, as compared to its last high ... & then it will hit by something where no one is looking ... 

China .. wait till 2024 ..!

latest addition to Vegas sky line ... MSG

Mission Accomplished ... Aug 2014 - 2023

a journey that started 10 years ago in San Francisco CA, where i stayed for few days, walked all over the city and developed the idea that Market Behavior is based on Human Behavior and Emotions (& not mambo jumbos like fundamentals or charts), which took a decade and several trips around the World, finally became a reality as testing of v5.0 completed in Jul 2023

as i mentioned earlier, i hope there is no 6.0; so i will go in pure execution mode till Dec 2023 and then move onto another mission which will last another decade ..!

 it will come ... eventually and then they will be wrong again ... so why bother in predicting in first place ..? 

or some will say, "i predicted it 2 years ago ..!"

with love, Vegas baby ..!

paying for sex is illegal , but there is no free sex ..?

This argument shows how fucked up human thinking is in current era, which leads to legal framework and then you tell people that they have committed a crime .. only in case you catch them and what % is that to reality?

Tell your wife that you are taking a break for one year from your job, and btw you plan to stay at home ... you know what will happen or is it a mystery?

Think about it.

Logic Model of Market & Human Behavior

in the 10th year of this venture, as I am near its completion, I changed my tagline from "Investment minus Emotions" to "Logical Model of Market & Human Behavior" as it is close to my experience now, than 10 year ago.

in last decade, i have been able to not only quantify Human Behavior (based on my own Mathematics) which is based on Logic; hence the outcomes are repeatable.
