It’s Friday. And this morning the pre-market is red at -0.71% at this moment. So how will this eventful week end?

S&P deciding whether it wants to make new lows today.

S&P deciding whether it wants to make new lows today. But a share of AAPL still buys more barrels of oil than yesterday! As tempting as it is to dip in more, a weekend gives time for people to digest news (economically, are things worse than a few weeks ago. The Fed did what was expected), but also for geopolitical things to screw up, or companies to implode. Lowered forecasts and outlooks, along with implosions, will give a hit at some point if not fully baked in. And so the sidelines seem like a good place to stay, which then causes things to keep going down. I like to think the Naz and S&P lows will hold. But that really is a hope, and I don't know the odds of that at this time, especially trying to account for with or without a push from something. Wild times, but the depths usually are, whether setting in the low or not there yet.

Based on the demographic Apple puts into all its ads, this likely means the further feminization of the NFL. Would it kill Tim Cook to put a single traditional male in one of Apple's ads? Why is looking weak, weird, asexual, slovenly, and beta male Apple's image?

If John Hamm is your example, good news! He was the star of a great Apple ad this year! But go off on your weird rant.

I assume the Jon Hamm pic was meant to represent your male ideal. I for one, have not had the same reaction to Apple’s ads as you have, but at 6-6 230 perhaps I am a bit more secure in my masculinity.

"S&P deciding whether it wants to make new lows today." We have the rest of the year to make new lows, if not today. New lows huge on a gap down. Eventually the market turns but not yet.
As far as the apple ads go, face it no one could make an ad like Steve. I either don't like them or don't notice them now. Would be better off just replaying the old ads with a few modifications, time to Think Different?
There has to be some movement on the war and energy pricing. There have been some bullish divergences on various indicators but new lows would erase them for the most part.

The market’s recovered some towards the end with good volume. AAPL stayed above the $150 line in the sand.

Sorry, I’m repeating myself, again.

The point made about reuse of old ads is great ! Just like Disney reuses movies from its large array of old movies. One might reuse/alter the old ads with success and positive feelings.

I don't think size or weight has much to do with masculine security. For example, I'm 5'5" 169 and secure in my masculinity.
