Watch Prices. Are they going up or down. Confused ๐Ÿ˜•

After hearing nothing but praise for the Sinn brand and been a decent diver short in my collection I thought I would check them out. I have been seeing conflicting evidence where certain blogs are saying prices will be coming down, which I understand because of people having less disposable income but I am also seeing prices rise on certain brands. ย Am I better off holding out or pulling the trigger now? Hindsight not available currently ย

This is the age old question! ย 

Back in Socrates's day, everyone speculated on olive prices, and would pray to the gods up on Mount Olympus to provide insights. ย When the prices rose, Jimus Cramerus would declare that he'd made a pilgrimage to the Oracle at Delphi, and the Oracle had proclaimed, "The planets align! ย Move thusly," and the pronouncements had convinced him to purchase many olive futures in the city square. ย When prices fell, Jimus Cramerus would declare that this time, the Oracle had proclaimed, "Winds come from the south, bringing ravenous seagulls," and this had convinced him to go short on olives!

Today, when it comes to prices, you can watch "Mad Money" with Jim Cramer, and through his excellent reading of technical charts and geopolitical conditions, he can tell you how prices will move for any given good or asset. ย Though, funnily enough, whenever anybody has created a tracking portfolio to test Jim Cramer's advice, they find that the tracking portfolio significantly underperforms something as simple as a low-fee S&P 500 index fund / ETF.

Thus... ย the price of any given good or asset is the price. ย If we could reliably and accurately predict future price movements, we would all be richer than the richest person on earth.

Thanks omeganut. Looks like I'm going to start praying but it will have to be more local than Mt Olympus with the price of airfareย

Have you seen a Sinn in person? ย I would love to check them out, ย but I ย don't know of any dealers with any in stock near me to try them on the wrist!
