The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The "Economic Modern Family" (MarketGauge.com) is a combination of one market index and 5 varying sectors & groups for "Market Analysis".
Trend indicators that give you an overall weekly gauge of how aggressive or not to be on the long or short side.
*My "Economic Modern Family" signals(3) are not strictly identical to the MarketGauge.com "Phases Tutorial"(6).
Market Phases Rev 10/20/2023
- "BEARish" phase is when the closing price is below the 50-Day and 200-Day moving averages for at least 5 days, while both slopes(MA) are Negative.
- "Bullish" phase is when the closing price is above the 50-Day and 200-Day moving averages for at least 5 days, while one of two slopes(MA) is Positive.
- "Cautionary Warning" phase is when the moving average crossovers(MAC) and slopes(MA) are not "BEARish" or "Bullish".
- "Support" is the level(floor) at which demand is strong enough to stop the stock from falling any further. (MAC positive 5d)
- "Resistance" is the level(ceiling) at which supply is strong enough to stop the stock from moving higher. (MAC negative 5d)
