The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" 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.

With the rout in the markets on the 5th November, the BCC is almost entering an interesting phase. BCC I (S&P500 SMA200 cross-over - currently 7353.74 vs. 7322.74 SMA200) is about to change state if there's another moderate down day or a series of slight declines from here (perhaps on Friday the 6th) and given the BCC II (Nasdaq NHNL based check) is already negative this is beginning to approach significance.

For the BCC I, I believe the details are here:
stockcharts.com: SharpCharts | StockCharts.com

For BCC II the details are contained in zeelotes weekly summary, but also backed up by my own personal BCC calculations (thanks lohill for the initial recent kickstart).

For BCC III it appears it'll be around another 2 months before a state change based on this estimate:
stockcharts.com: SharpCharts | StockCharts.com

Market breadth has been recently broadly negative (with the exception of yesterday) since circa the start of September, the indexes are flat to slightly down since that period, there's frothy IPO activity and the BCC indicators are slowly changing state. Perhaps it's not the right time to be carrying any margin?

Be careful out there & do it to them before they do it to you!
