It’s a pretty shocking fall for Intel. Dropped by over 50% since December.
Foreign war is crazy good business for some companies. Check out what’s happened to LMT stock of late.

I’ve been doing extremely well on PNG. I think in the US it’s KRKNF.
The only things green on my watch list are things that are short equities in some way or a bond index.
The vanguard app was working, in general , this morning , but when I was going to see if I could figure out how to sell some bonds to buy some stocks it said something along the lines of “uh, no”.

Schwab app is back up!
I only have 2 positions in the black today, but both are a small % of my portfolio: SCHP, VTEB
I think that might be today’s intraday price compare to historical daily closing prices.
I wonder how Black Monday would have fared VIX-wise.
I feel old.

At a glance, it looks like the implied VIX would have been about 150.
Eh, from some rough math looks like my 2024 return is down to only 9-10%ish.
Woe is me.
Everything still being invested biweekly as normal.

Yup, I am still a net buyer, so cheaper is better for me. The money I have that I might spend in the next year is weighted towards bonds right now, that’s down about 1%. I’ll feel better about increasing my weight towards equity and growth ETFs if things become less frothy, but 5% in the last week is not really quite the drop that gets there.
Time to buckle my helmet.
Later, that same day, I was able to exchange bonds for stocks.
Seems like these platforms should be able to handle volumes a bit more than they are. Schwab wasn’t slow, it just didn’t work at all.
