I don’t think the markets are all that calm right now – the VIX is still hovering around the 60’s – but they are definitely calmer than they were one month ago. There’s a more long-term uncertainty now, perhaps, rather than a day-to-day disaster feeling, even if the roller coasters in the Dow are still happening.
Either way, it seems there are less readers now in search of immediate news and analysis – less coming by the blog on a daily basis, anyway, compared with the months so far. Generally, though, I think this blog always tends to get busier towards the end of each month for some reason. I checked the stats for this month and so far November is really underperforming. Any other bloggers notice this too? (Probably not the most popular ones, though). Not sure why.
It would be nice to engage in deeper discussions here in the comments with readers, however…. it’s great to know you’ve got a new blog or something but I’d really rather hear your thoughts on what I actually wrote about:) – not pointing fingers at anyone, though. It could be that I’ve put people off by my emphasis on the Canadian dollar – since Americans are more numerous on here, anyway…
Anyways, here’s looking forward to the holiday season! Can’t believe it’s being advertised already. Time to buy some Wal-Mart stock, I think – and if I had the extra cash right now, I might actually do that. But I’m still waiting for the dollars to turn around…
