  1. Hold Strong Champ! You've been through recessions, relocations, turmoil, nothing can bring you down! Not even this! ✊

  2. I admire you sincerity and openness

  3. You're a good man Mike and I hope you get past this breakup someday

    You said 8 weeks downside because of the tax drain, this will be brutal … any idea how low it will go? New lows or any chance that october lows could hold?

    My sympathies. I've been through a break up couple of years ago after 7 years of relationship. I wouldn't say it came out of nowhere for me as things were deteriorating but the way the other party handled it made it a very painful experience to me on every front. That, adding to the emotional pain it caused me.

    Over the time I realized I am good being alone, I have been in many relationships and I focused on living for myself (for now). I know this isn't everyone's way to deal with things but I guess the way I was hurt helped me become resilient to the fallout.

    What I can tell you mike is that it's good to remember the great times. But it's necessary to move on as your life is yours and while you might be thinking about that person who left, think about that Mike, that guy inside, think about yourself and how much you yourself need your own love before you can give it to someone who might not understand or appreciate it. (At least that's what worked for me).

    Stay strong.

    • staying single is more peaceful! I think I will never be in relationship again – divorce after 24 years of marriage was the hardest experience of my life. Now, I focus on market technical analysis! which help me to forget and to heal – stay strong all you who are dealing with separation.

  6. We love you Mike, stay strong and positive!

  7. Mike, its is tough but I promise you will be okay! it took me 7 yrs to recover ! You are brave to share your personal information!

  8. Praying for you, Mike! Jesus is there to help you through all of this. Recommend watching The Chosen to help!

  9. Van Thang Nguyen

  10. Never feel sad about a woman.

  11. Be strong things happen for a reason. You can’t connect the dots looking forward but can looking backwards! We all love you here stay up and strong!

    Thanks for your great markets insights, Mike. I'm sorry for your relationship breakup. I've been there. Give yourself a couple of weeks. Then get on a plane to Thailand. Sit on a beach. See some sights. Treat yourself. Take care.

  13. All the best Mike!

  14. Mike, hang in there, we need ya. I have been there more than once. The pain passes new relationships appear, lessons learned, life goes on. Your relationship with your kids pure gold, hope you realize what you have there. Your a good man.

  15. I respectfully disagree with 99% of what you say, but I choose to watch you to get a 360 degree view of macro. You make me think and that's good. That's said, your break up does not sound easy and I wish you the best no matter the outcome.

  16. You're a child of God Mike. You are deeply loved and valued

  17. Mike I totally understand your loss I am really sorry for you pal. I turned my life over to Jesus Christ and now am a changed man with a restored heart

  18. I’m sorry Mike. Been there. Sucks, staying busy and enjoying food & wine with friends helped me…and time. Good memories. Sending loving energy to you.

  19. Sorry to hear. Prayers

  20. It often provides a sense of relief when you come to grips with the fact that everybody loses in these types of things. There are no "other guys" getting away scot free". Its five rounds with Robbie lawler. Everybody gets checked into the hospital after that. it helps. I was one to take the brunt of the blame for my break up and the clouds parted when i realized that she was a kettle of snakes just like i was. It puts the load on 4 shoulders instead of just yours.
