What goes up must come down

Entry #37.0 April 29th, 2026

Today we are going to talk about crypto and the stock market. First of all crypto seems to be tight fairly heavily to the stock market now of days, so we are just going to talk about the market in general. I have not been able to invest much more in the stock market because of my financial situation at the moment. I'm just letting what I have do it's thing. So let's talk about how I am continuing to make this grow.

When the cease fire between Iran and the US was first announced, things went up pretty dramatically. They had gone down precipitously since the beginning of the war. So when things were up I took a little bit of money out of everything. Probably about $75. Things are back down now. If you pay attention, this seems to be a good barometer to determine what is going to happen next. Trump loves money. And the stock market influences his decisions. You can tell. Now that things are back down I invested some of the money I had taken out in the stocks that I had taken money out of. This is selling when it's high and then buying when it's low. This method continues to drive down my average purchase price. So when things go back up, they don't have to go up as much for me to be breaking even again. And I'm above the break even point enough, rinse and repeat. Things don't go up forever, so when I feel like they have gone up enough I take a little out. When they go back down I reinvest that money I had made. This is going to lead to me owning more shares of whatever I currently own. So when things go back up, I make more and more money.

I am not a financial advisor. In my opinion you really don't need to listen to them. Follow your own instincts. Watch it daily, not too much but enough. I have never read a financial blog or listened to anyone else's financial advice. This method comes out of a lot of thinking and a lot of marijuana. Lol I guess my advice is to stay high, sell high, buy when you and it are low. Lol
