S&P cracks 5300 for the first time. I doubt it closes the day that high, but it seems the market wants to run The market must be anticipating lower interest rates in the next 6 months ?

You can listen to two different news sources.
The look at the economic data as getting better and getting worse.
Not a damn thing I can do about it anyway.
Go fishing!

Dow hits 40K. 15 years ago I don't think I would have considered that a possibility in my lifetime.

I got in somewhere right around 4500-4800 as I recall. I've tried telling the kids how important it is to start investing in their 20s. One kind of listened. The other not so much. I understand that it's difficult to find "extra" money when you're young, but it sure will pay benefits when you're old.

But the land flipping more than made up for my stock market stupidity back then. And with that former land flipping money in the market now. Compounding is a real deal and can make a guy look like a genius. lol

The metals are getting legs again. I don't know how long I've been in CEF and SPPP, but I think at least 3 months, maybe 6. I had moved everything before the TD migration to Schwab happened and they haven't sent over the cost basis yet. I don't like the Schwab platform.
CEF is up 16% after today, SPPP is up 10% after today. They're still very tiny positions for me, but interesting to watch.

I bought shares of Barrick Gold and I’m up a few dollars a share and it pays around 3% dividend. I think my total exposure to gold/silver is under 1%?

Are you billionaires thinking alike? They’re trying to catch up I think. He went straight gold. He should have grabbed a little CEF because silver moves faster than gold. But he’s not in bad shape with gold only.
