Overall Markets Are A Mess
I am still looking across companies and the overall markets are a big mess. A lot of problem is created by a paradox on one hand lingering supply chain issues forcing prices of goods continuing to rise and people sitting on tons of cash to withhold doing anything as borrowing rates are still high due to lack of products moving through the supply chain and where governments raise rates to try to keep goods from going too high in price while people supposedly have more money on saved dollars which doesnt help when inflationary pressures are at 7 to 8 peecent and best rates non direct of stocks is 4 plus some but really nothing is new for people who dont gamble. When the rates are low .50 percent inflation is around 2 to 3 peecent the only difference people sitting on huge amounts of cash will not because they can make way more strategically using it on investments so really while these rates hurt everyone it bites the most who are relying on stocks as a vehicle to make wealth. Quite some time back i heard people say the market is non investible this is relative. If people are looking for stronger returns overall and are not market timimg yes that is correct. The trend i am seeing is very small gains and people being very upset about things and i am talking even in regards to bank stocks that pay decent dividend rates and increased them to companies like this and other juniors in all sorts of sectors. I said somewhere i think mrs boards that within a year the majority of stocks will double despite what will most likely come out from governments we are in a recession that is inevitable. Why i have said what i have again will be paradoxical. While being told we are in a recession and with rates being raised to keep inflationary pressures down all caused by shortages and supply chain issues the typical thing that needs to happen is rates get cut to increase spending. Well shortages are shortages so in that sense it isnt because there is any great amounts of product and slow down in economy it is this time because there isnt as much and production takiing major hits due to covid shutdowns and now the need to get back to pre covid levels along with the growing pains to do so. When rates get cut however people sitting flush with cash will most likely start to infuse more of it creating what i suspect a surge in the markets despite "recession" so on that one side that is great. Hopefully more goods will start to flow through and more workers needed to keep up with the demand to offset the decrease in rates where those who dont gamble directly with stocks has money despite lising it due to a decrease of interest rates which people are still behimd. It is a big mess overall and a restored equilibrium as with oil and gas prices is needed for things to be a lot healthier so while not being happy about share value here the reality is lot of people are extremely unhappy elsewhere too and i am looking at share prices they are heavily protracted and if people are getting 20 percent and take it i wouldnt blame them. There are a few choices wait it out, dump and get 4 or so percent, average out shares and wait it out and anything i may have missed. There are some paople making 5 to 10 percent many others hit down to 40 plus percent which is me and my Dad and brother the former. The huge difference is risk and product they have blue chip funds mutual and stocks i am typically over expised to high risk juniors which i am now thinking due to this experience in possibly changing my junior holding strategy as well as adding more divie fund. One company that reached quite high dollar values which i am keeping an ongoing eye on is ntar on the Canadian Exchange. At one time from my weak recollection it may have reached around 9 a share but what it has done is spin things out from ntar xane arwy and another one that may start trading today if i got the ticker right tggl look for ntar if interested. There was a raise and if what i suspect is correct it may start trading at .50 possibly lower. This may be a great stock for a fairly fast near term return i am suspecting more than 20 percent lot of stocks have peaked and cant make it by their ceilings right now so while frustrating it all takes patience and proper share management. As for here i dont want to consider moving anything under $2 but still waiting to see where things go when the heat is turned on and where this settles before increased earnings and more uprising factors.
