Jesse LivermoreThe tape tells me what it wants, and today it says wait. Fifty names are doing nothing for me, and twenty-five are merely flirting with resistance—that is not action, that is hesitation. CBRE, CIB, ECPG broke down, which only confirms the majority are not ready to move. I do not buy hope; I buy proof. When the line of least resistance finally turns up on a broad front, I will be there, but not one minute sooner.
