Patrick's Diary - 3/9/2016

It's midnight, I just got up. On my mind, several memorable scenes have been flashed: filled up Champs-Elysees; breeze kissed Kungstradgarden; crazy girls and boys at JJ; excited fans at Broadway. Yes, midnight in mid summer is always fantastic, especially when you are young. At the opposite, I am anxiously waiting for the other extreme. I know it will be totally different but I will reach the destination then. 
Clinton and Sanders faced off at THE "U" where I learnt what American Football was the first time in my life. CNN worked with Univision to have the debate targeting Latino voters, so a lot of attentions were paid to the issues of immigration. At certain point of time two weeks ago, Sanders seemed fading. Since winning several Caucuses last week, he obviously came back. As he cheered, winning Michigan was probably one of the biggest upsets in nomination history.
Markets were up slightly but my GTZ portfolio dropped by 6%. I guess several hedge funds targeting it to slam the door in my face. Price of Zillow had been recovered in the last several weeks, so profit-taking might be a factor; Election-related factor might drive Twitter down; Gopro was not too bad after big drop yesterday. The spotlight was Facebook gaining momentum again. Finding this clip on Youtube, I was wondering why Virtual Reality can't save Gopro as someone commented today. I am in Chile now.
Midweek passed, weekend is closer... I plan to start as early as possible in the morning...It is payday which will have me motivated at the highest level before the next one comes.
