Yesterday carl was a discouraging day for a lot of people who have been chasing momentum because last week was maybe one of the best momentum weeks i can recall since 1999, which meant that if you bought it went higher and how much fun is that . Yesterday was the day that you bought it went higher and then you got crushed. So i think that usually takes a couple days of reset where maybe you can after stocks that arent as hot, say, as tesla. So you would focus, say, on Something Like the banks ive been through the banks and i know dave and i talk about this all the time, they are incredibly complex beasts, they are not like, oh, tesla, hot and when i first went over them i thought they looked pretty good but already theyre reversing. This is not an uncommon pattern as people find one line or two line that they dont like and then they sell these stocks. David, its happening once again.

States, on the other hand, are carrying out fewer executions this year – seven so far – than in any year since 1983, when five people were executed. This is in part because the COVID-19 pandemic poses serious health risks for the personnel responsible for putting prisoners to death.
Among the state executions postponed this year was that of Pervis Payne, who in November was granted a temporary reprieve by Tennessee’s governor until April 9, 2021. Payne was sentenced to death in 1988 for the stabbing deaths of 28-year-old Charisse Christopher and her 2-year-old daughter. He also was convicted of assault with intent to commit first-degree murder of Christopher’s 3-year-old son, who survived.

In June, Attorney General William Barr ordered the resumption of federal executions. Like a kid let loose in a candy store, Barr wasted no time.
On July 14, Daniel Lee Lewis, according to his lawyer, spent the last four hours of his life strapped to a gurney, waiting for the Supreme Court to decide his fate. On July 13, a federal judge had delayed his execution on the grounds that the constitutionality of Barr’s procedure for lethal injections had not been fully litigated. The Justice Department immediately appealed to the Supreme Court. Ultimately, Lewis was executed shortly after the court, in a 5-4 ruling, paved the way for 10 people to be executed by the federal government by year’s end.
