It is Learning the Differentiation that makes a Difference

Jean Gebser was a philosopher that felt human consciousness had developed in lie into "structures". IN 1953 he wrote The Ever-Present Origin, and outlined categorizations that led to integral theory models.

Gebser saw turmoil, chaos and social, moral and political decline as positive, no matter what the short term, as turmoil led to new levels of human consciousness. Floydian Therapy works in this way, seeing the current "dissolution of values", or "core beliefs" as coming from polarization "led by how we are led", or not led. In other words, we as a people follow our own chaos and turmoil (worldwide) and if GREED the culprit, magnify it. If FEAR the culprit, we magnify it. And cause and effect leads supply and demand, and the economics of the world then leads the next trigger points.

This is heady stuff, but where we are. Knowing and understanding it is key to your stock market successes. Much of my discussion with clients surrounds learning and understanding our recognition that the way we interpret our experience really determines how we value and see it.

When we understand HOW we interpret an experience we can begin to determine how we value and see it. In turn, if we believe that how we see it is "the norm", or "right" we influence the experience and make it unreal.

Here's an example: on every flight I take I pack a box cutter. This is how 9/11 occurred, and our rights are trampled daily by the TSA at airports as we as people stand in Holocaust lines filing through.

In the last 19 flights my box cutter has never been noticed. This is why I carry it. I am proving to myself either the lack of security, OR the changes in laws that would allow a box cutter to go through (many airports tell me this is now acceptable). It's a classic example of stupidity. I have to take my shoes off, but box cutters are okay, or not noticed.

This means two things:

1. The TSA is inept and the entire "investigation" of our people is worthless.

2. That as sheep the American people have "believed" the rule, "believed the "value of the rule", and "believed" in the competency of the initial decision. The initial decision was not competent, making the "effect" secondary to the "cause".

All three of the beliefs have been false.

It is how we see things that influence how they are experienced.

This is more than true in the stock market.

My rebellion in carrying my box cutter is simply to remind me of what IS, not what is told me to be.

When I hear "facts" I immediately try to prove to myself if they are really facts, or instead, "false facts". It is learning the differentiation that makes a difference. It is from this that we were able, in our Blue Chip Option service, to sell near the top at 14,000, and sell again at 11,000....as none of the economic FACTS we had been hearing made sense to Floyd. Oil at all time highs (then), but unemployment not high......but all the new jobs in home building only, and the market topping. When oil was speculated beyond comprehension, we could and should have been able to see that trader speculation was far out of control. This would have been an example of "understanding false facts", much of what I try to teach in my constant tirades on the idiocy of "analysts and talking heads", most of whom have now lost their jobs, and our fortunes.

Market conditions "flat lined" for so many hours on Monday, yet again a sign that the market does not know what to do. We saw the market move from an opening top 9200, to a bottom testing by 3 p.m. at 8723.

November 380 puts were able to be bought at as low as 1.75, below prior day close, and sold to highs of 4.00, exceeding our expectations. We'll list these as a new potential signal, HIGHER risk only.
