  1. What these charts and the comments on the site remind me of besides years we have seen before, but we had wealth to counter it, unlike today…….is the article you posted from Zero Hedge showing the buybacks of their own stock by corporate leaders, using borrowed money, a final screw to the shareholders. I have been buying stock for nearly fifty years, and there are no guarantees for shareholders, you buy at your own risk……that was true when the markets were clean…………now, every crooked trick goes.
    The top company was Apple. I wish you could repost that article, people who have stock (I got out about 3 years ago after a lifetime in the markets) need to see that list. Buying back stock with borrowed money bodes ill for any of the shareholders.
    I know entire towns and communities who invested in Apple to keep the income they need coming in……and I have a feeling it won’t work out well for them.
    I will scan through your site and try to find it, but it is more important now than it was two weeks ago when you posted it. The sociopaths heading these companies don’t give a damn about the shareholders, just a way to further line their own pockets.
    So, if you could re-post it, that would be great.
    Thanks.
