Hope everyone had a good week. We are definitely in a no mans land at this point and will be finding out if there is another leg down, leg up or just a period of heavy volatility but little overall change in the market for the next two weeks.
I get to take a walk and have access to a view of a major highway. I am noticing a slow but steady increase in traffic on this highway every week. I know this country is doing the best that it can during this shutdown, but I also know that this country is full of energetic, productive, excited people who want more of life than sitting around and waiting for the grim reaper to knock on the door.
I doubt very much these people are going to hospitals, I think the animal spirit is churning in our society and we are ready to get out and start living. Watch what is happening in your area. Drive by the strip malls and see if the owners and some of the workers are going in to prep for their openings. You/me and everyone else is going to be able to see something amazing over the course of the next few weeks and few months. We are going to see an entire nation that was shut down and locked up get back out their and start businesses up again. Are they going to do this in a half ass fashion, or are they going to kick, scream and fight for every customer they can get their hands on?
I am betting on the american will to fight, work, achieve, prosper.
