Lions are amazed by how skilled most animals are in the names of all the versions of windows.  The lion kingdom dropped out of windows by 98.  Later brands are a blur.

In searching for signs of the next nikkei 225, lots of news lately about most of the S&P 500 now being just a few companies.  The nikkei went up 6x in 10 years.  The S&P is up 2.5x in the last 10 years.  It has a better chance right now of continuing to  go up than down before having its own nikkei moment.

 What would lions do if it did start approaching the 6x in 10 years figure?  Stick to the game plan of letting the stonk position grow on its own or rebalance?

Lions believe the policy since Japan's lost decade would be to print enough money to hold the line on inflation targeting by reinflating assets.  They may not reinflate enough to prevent a long term 50% loss in the stonk market, as pervasive as the Dave Ramsey movement is.  S&P 500 of 12,000 in the next year would mirror the nikkei 225.  Lions would consider that worthy of deviating from Dave but only see it in the mid 6000's for the next year.  That's going to be a 3x gain over 10 years.

  If the S&P 500 had a significant run up, whatever that is, & the lion kingdom had enough unrealized gains to live out its life without working, enough would be converted to cash & more conservative mutual funds so a 50% loss in the stonk market would leave enough to not need a job.  

There's still a good case for continued 2 headed inflation, with stonk indexes following housing to infinity while falling wages & durable goods keep the average at 3.5.

The goonies house, father of the bride house, home alone house are pretty obfuscated to protect the home owners.  Not so with the ET house.  Wonder if they're trying to sell it.  All these movie houses would make bank as short term rentals.  It would be sold out to gootubers & generation Xers trying to live out their childhood fantasies.

Besides zestimates which don't always reflect reality, the property lines are also pretty fudged.  The real ET house does back up onto open space just like the movie.   No redwood forest as depicted in the movie.

Living next to a forest is a dream we all had because of the movies, but the reality is forest fires.

Comparing injury recovery in April with injury recovery today, it got back to an intermittent 9 minute pace within 1 month of the 1st disability, even if it was inconsistent.  The lion kingdom left out 4 pure walking days, but most every day within 3 weeks included some running.

 

After the regression on May 26, things haven't progressed as well.  3 weeks later, it's still not possible  to do any running on consecutive days.  The maximum speed has never gotten above 12 minutes.  It seems the most important factor is the overall pace rather than the maximum speed, since it balances out. 

Comparing paces of just wally trips, there were a lot more in April & they were going a lot faster.  It could be lions aren't pushing as hard but the paw is definitely hurting more than before from the slower paces.

There are some theories that if lions just focus on walking for a prolonged period, it might recover faster.  12 minute pace with short bursts to 9 minutes were a common theme in April that wasn't replicated in June.

Also note a few days in April were rained out.  There were no days spent at home in June.
