Just booked a trip with my son to see the Mets for a few games in March.
Last shot on the last hole keeps you coming back!I like it because at this stage I might play 5 times a year so a fairly tough course is not going to be enjoyable. Plus my last hole of my last round of '24 was sinking a 25' Birdie putt on Pebbles 18th. You're only as good as your last shot or in my case you only choose to remember your last shot.😄
This time it's different. 🤨You sound like my crazy coworkers in 2000. (And the got wiped out on the high flyers). Valuations don’t matter, “it’s the new economy”. And they were right during 1998 and 1999, but…..
Eventually, valuations become #1….. every time
But only four years ago when I was called one of the three little bears 😉 for questioning some crazy valuations, including ARKK.You know that was 25 years ago, right? Even many of the top "value" investors have moved on from that POV.
1. Sentiment
2. Technicals
3. Valuations
The market is forward looking.
Given how ineffectual the Senate is -- and I speak as someone who served for nine years and commuted from Camden every month for meetings -- it's not surprising that attendance is low. BTW, for those who don't know, the Senate is comprised of students, administrators and staff in addition to faculty. Its only power is to make the University Calendar (I, unfortunately, became an expert on that even though the law school, where I taught, does not follow the same calendar.) All of its other actions are just recommendations to the administration, which usually rejects them with a few sentences of explanation.Budget details were published in September 2024 so the details have been public for half a year.
Wonder how many university senators turned up to the address. Shouldn't be too difficult for senators because meetings are held on Zoom.
At least Holloway turned up for his own address. He was zero for seven on meeting attendance during 2024-2025 Senate year, now one for eight.
Forty six percent of senators have missed a majority of meetings this senate year.
Dude that was the most impressive hoops win I have ever seen. We went into Mackey (which is like going into Happy Valley in football) when we just beat them ranked #1 the year before. That game was circled on their calendar and they were undefeated and we beat them in their house, a road win over #1. Incredibly impressive. Can we get a top 25 win in football to snap the 16 year drought?
Grant - Hope he staysGrant -- Hopefully we can hold on to
Dortch -- No idea. Stays or transfers down?
Lathan -- Feel like we'll see a mutual (to some extent) parting ways. Part of me thinks Pike would rather go back to what he's comfortable with at the 5...a solid defensive minded rim protector. Even if Pike does want him, I think Lathan will get NIL from someone and bounce.
JMike -- For a couple of kids who grew up together, it feels like him and Ace aren't really that close?? I had him penciled in as leaving after this season with Ace, but now I'm not so sure. Also don't think his NIL value is that high. Hopefully he stays, if nothing else for some continuity
Derkack -- Stays as a guy off the bench. Or Pike gets him to stop with the "it's Jordan Derkack time" nonsense.
JWill -- Think he feels at home here and is still loyal to Pike for taking a chance on him.
Ogbole -- Stays. Who is paying a raw guy who can't stay healthy?
So that means what, 2-3 portal additions?
Budget details were published in September 2024 so the details have been public for half a year.Perhaps some of you will want to glance at the text of President Holloway's budget speech yesterday to the University Senate.

Agreed. But don't tell that to rutgersguy1. :)Very true.
But you need to know when the case has been cracked. I don't think it has at this point with PLTR. But as with all stocks need to keep that eye peeled. You mention technicals. So 50 day, 100 day and 200 day need to be on the radar.
