Quote for the Day:

The most important function of any moral code is to condemn and, if possible, prohibit certain specified forms of behavior. Such behavior may seem to be effective in the short run by yielding quick results, as in the case of a successful theft, or it may yield at least short-term pleasure, as in the case of an adulterous affair. From this standpoint violations of the moral code may seem to the individual to be shortcuts to desirable ends, but according to the moral code such shortcuts are judged to be harmful to the social order as a whole.

1. S&P 500: still hanging on; 2.4% above the "bear line"

S&P 500 closing values
1/5/22   4797   All time high
8/31/22   3955   Latest close
Down 17.6%
Bear market territory is 20% and more down.

(Actually we continue to be in a bear market from having dipped below the 20% line back in June or whatever, and technically we stay there until a new all-time high is set).
