The Market Today

Port Black Spider

Today, my port went negative, albeit briefly, because of FDC and ELI. Having noticed that their transaction volumes are not significant, I shrugged the shakeout, crossed my fingers and prayed they will not get worse.They, actually, rebounded.

Port Black Spider closed at 1% plus or just a little bit higher than yesterday. With a bloody market (see above left), I am just glad to see that my port's YTD is still green.

And so, I reward myself with this lady posing against a backdrop of green banana leaves.

Santa Banana! Wowie! What are those? I mean, can you not see the aphids on the leaves?
