    Interesting, hard for me to get super bullish on copper though until the economy in China begins to show some signs of life :eek:

    I think the spending power of Japanese is getting weaker, maybe they are benefiting somewhat on tourism though, many people are traveling to Japan apparently :D

    Lots of people moving there too, that aren't actually Japanese :hmm:
    I'd love to move back, but it's too expensive, and I like my guns too much to give them up.
    I should visit, just to see my relatives over there.

    CPI might move the markets this morning.
    I seriously doubt dumbass ( Powell ) will lower interest rates. He might stop hiking, but def not lowering if CPI is above 3%, which it probably will be.
    Hell, he may even hike them again, if the US banking cabal tells him too ( JPM, GS, MS, BAC ).

    Seems like mega tech names are holding up well, MSFT, AMZN and NVDA all in the green. Maybe they continue to put money into those mega tech names to push this market higher lol :hmm:

    I have relatives all over Japan ( Osaka, Tokyo, Oshima, Kagoshima ) and some friends still live in Okinawa.
    Like you stated, I really miss the culture and food.
    Speaking of, the NKD jumped up like a rabbit last night...:hmm:...Warren Buffet must be celebrating getting into Japanese stocks.

    all good here thx so much for asking! :thumbsup:

    just been a little busier than usual combined with feeling a little under the weather this week, hence the reason why i put out my thread updates a little earlier (on monday) than i normally do :p

    haven't really been monitoring the daily action much still, markets kinda been acting a little weird lately.

    i also haven't been trading still...but plan to get back to it again at some point later in this year.

    hope you guys have had an awesome kickoff to your new year. really cannot thank you guys enough for keeping this thread active everyday!! seriously. y'all are the real mvp's around here. thank you truly from the bottom of my heart :worship:
