Financial news and stock markets.

Well, This morning, at roughly 1.30 pm gmt, I told you to sell stocks. The European markets were euphoric after EU summit reached "historic deal" to curb the recession in Europe.
I told you to sell stocks because that's what I did: I sold some Societe Generale at 16.15€ and I bought back the position at 15.70€. Since I sold 2800 stocks, It turned out to be a profitable trade. I reinforced my short positions on the s&p 500 at 3260 points too.

So what's going to happen now? I see some bearishness on the markets because the US equity market is pretty expensive. Today, the GAFAM ended lower and I wouldn't be surprised of a correction pretty soon. I'm not at ease with Amazon at 3200$ or Tesla at 1500$ or even Apple near 400$. I expect the coronavirus pandemic to have a negative effect on the American economy over the next few months.
Note that the precious metals were trading higher today: Silver ended up the session up 5% while Gold reached an all-time high. I'm still bullish for the precious metals sector as sentiment remains “buoyant". I think Silver price can easily reach 25$ per ounce.




Note that I bought a bottle of prestigious wine tonight. And I will present another recipe tomorrow. Since face masks have become mandatory in France in public places today, due to a recent "surge" of the coronavirus pandemic, you now look like a surgeon everywhere you go. I couldn't help laughing in the supermarket tonight since I wasn't using masks before. With everyone wearing a mask, it reminded me of primetime series Emergency Heights.
