Jimmyl, Thanks for sharing. Yes, I agree that not everything looks rosy in the near future. As you mentioned , last year almost anyone could have look as genius picking stocks, but this year will be different matter. I know  that some people do not trust charts and it is true that chart can not predict future SP action, but it does show support levels  accurately enough.

 At this point $24 area is very strong, but if big negative news hits a market, then SP can easily fall  to $20-th, and  a war  in Eastern Europe can push SP even lower, to the next support of last July -$14. So,  things are not clear as we would like.  Of cause nothing I mentioned might  happen and  in a good scenario- stock market already assumed rate increase, war will be avoided and by end of the year LAC reports production quarter  pushing SP up to mid $30-th.

 As they say: pick your poison,  or not, LOL. Go LAC.
