Good morning.
Shares of GameStop (GME) are back under $50. For those who bought near the peak, that’s nearly a 90 percent drop. For those who bought near the stock’s 52-week low, that’s still a 10-fold gain. With trading volume on the stock dwindling, it’s possible that the squeeze is over, and that many have already taken profits (or losses).
There’s still some chatter that the short positions held by hedge funds were only covered synthetically, and many retail investors are willing to hold onto their shares indefinitely. While there may be a second bump in shares, most traders looking for a big move have moved on to other names. Now, all that’s left is speculating on casting for the inevitable movie about the time Main Street took on Wall Street at its own game and was winning – until it got shut down.
Now here’s the rest of the news:
February 10, 2020
Natural gas futures hit an all-time low in Asia, as fears of the coronavirus are likely to impact energy demand there during the Northern hemisphere’s winter season.
That’s bad news for the energy sector, including the U.S.A.
In the past, natural gas could only be shipped by pipeline, but over the past few years the technology to liquefy and send natural gas anywhere in the world via tanker has come into operation. For heavily leveraged American energy companies hoping for foreign demand, this is one more troubling sign for the shale space this year.

Time … 5 Ways You May be Wasting Yours!



If I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard someone say — or even said myself — that they “wish there were more hours in a day,” I’d probably have enough money to buy a car … a clunker … but the point is that this is something you and I probably hear (and say) fairly regularly.
Let’s face it, we all have the same 24 hours in a day. And while this wish for more time is somewhat a figure of speech, most of us find that it’s a race against the clock (better said, a race against one complete rotation of the earth) to get everything done that we want to each day.
But what if we didn’t need more time … what if we just needed to make better use of the time we had? The truth is that most of us are “leaking” time each day on things that really don’t matter. That’s a nice way of saying that at some point during the day, most people are wasting time.
Here are 5 common time vampires sucking this precious resource from you.
Watching TV. The average person spends about 35 hours watching TV a week. That’s insane. It’s basically a full-time job. We’re not saying to get rid of TV. We’re just saying that there’s probably a better way (or 20) to spend at least a fraction of that time.
Gossiping. Not only is it an utter waste of time, gossiping is negative, sucking time, energy, and life out of you — and whoever else is involved in the useless banter. Use that time to practice gratitude, meditate, write a note to someone, or have a meaningful conversation with a friend.
Not having a to-do list. If you’re going to protect your time, use it productively, and win the day, you need to have a game plan that emphasizes your top priorities (those things that are urgent and important). Sure, there’s a good chance things may not go exactly according to plan, and you need to be flexible to a degree; but you’ve heard it before and you’ll hear it again: If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.
Social media. While social media isn’t inherently bad, when you’re spending 2 – 9 hours on it a day like most people are, that’s too much valuable time that’s being wasted. Don’t believe you’re leaking that much time to the social media vampires? Use an app like Pyxsee to track your social media use (and even set limits on how much time you do spend); you’ll be surprised.
To the value of time! 😉
