Yabba Dabba Doo! Stocks Go Up, Stocks Go Down, What's a Caveman to Do?

Apple and Amazon? Sounds Like a Prehistoric Fruit Salad!

Yabba Dabba Doo! Your old pal Fred here reporting live from Bedrock! Seems like those fancy schmancy 'stocks' are at it again. Wilma keeps telling me to invest but I'd rather spend my clams on a Bronto Burger! Anyway this 'Apple' thingy is reporting soon and they're down 10.5% in three months. Ouch! Then there's this 'Amazon,' down 21%. Sounds like Pebbles and Bamm Bamm got a hold of their allowance! I tell ya these modern gadgets are more trouble than they're worth. Give me a good ol' stone tablet any day!

India? I Thought We Were Talking About Rocks!

So apparently there's no 'trade deal' in 'India.' I thought India was just a really big rock! This 'Brian Sullivan' guy talked to some 'Commerce Secretary' who said they almost have a deal but some 'prime minister' and 'parliament' need to say 'Yabba Dabba Doo' first. And then there's talk about 'iShares' and 'ETFs'... sounds like something Barney would try to sell me! All I know is if it ain't a dinosaur rib I ain't tradin' for it!

April Showers Bring Stock Market Powers (or Something)

April was a wild ride folks! The 'Nasdaq' went up a bit but then it was still down from the high. The 'S & P 500' also took a little dip. Even the 'Dow Industrials' got the blues down about 3.2%. And don't even get me started on the 'Russell 2000' and 'Dow Transports' – they're down more than Dino when I try to give him a bath! What in Bedrock is going on?!

Jim Cramer? More Like Jim 'Cramerock'!

This fella Jim Cramer he's like the Bedrock fortune teller! He's talking about 'leaders' like 'Bill McDermott' from 'ServiceNow,' and 'Brian Niccol' from 'Starbucks.' He even likes the guy from 'Microsoft,' this 'Satya Nadella' fella. But then he also talks about 'Mark Zuckerberg' who's not doing so hot! And get this he says that 'Starbucks' is down! Maybe they should start serving Bronto Burgers with their coffee – that'll get things movin'!

Overseas Troubles? Sounds Like Dino Lost His Bone Again!

Now there's talk about companies with businesses overseas. Apparently some folks out there might not be too thrilled with the U.S. these days. This 'Steve Liesman' guy says it could be a problem for companies like 'Starbucks' and 'McDonald's.' Even the 'Yum Brands' folks are worried! I tell ya sometimes I think I'd rather just stick to Bedrock and avoid all these fancy pants problems!

Tesla GM and the Gang: Revving Up or Running on Fumes?

That 'Tesla' thing lost some ground but this 'GM' company is in the spotlight too. Some lady named 'Mary Barra' is talking about 'tariffs'. Sounds like trouble! And this other company 'Eli Lilly,' is reporting something or other. Finally there's 'W.W. Grainger,' whatever that is. All I know is if it ain't got wheels and a big engine I ain't interested! Yabba Dabba Doo!
