Last night was a bust for auroras, at least, for most. It didn't even seem like a timing issue, as the Kp index (a measure of the level of disturbance in earth's magnetic field) didn't really move much. That being said, the Kp index is derived from a weird mix of science and witchcraft over a 3 hour window and gives a standard quasi-logarithmic number that's valid for all latitudes which is reported after the 3 hours intervals at specific times ie 0000 hrs, 0300 hrs, 0600 hrs, 0900 hrs...1800 hrs, 2100 hrs. Anyway, fingers crossed for the rest of the weekend and here is the Kp forecast courtesy of NOAA.

NB Time is universal - remember to convert for your locale. Should be good tonight in Europe and North America.
I thought that auroras were more of a thing in the summer time in the northern hemisphere and in the winter time in the southern hemisphere.. .. although probably the southern hemisphere would be calling our wintertimes to be their summer times... if you know what I am saying?
So maybe then I might assert that I thought that auroras were more of a summertime thing.. ..
Yeah, the middle of the planet is always summer, but they don't get auroras... another weird contradiction. Go figure.
So many stupid lawyers... but they get paid anyway, like politicians
Most politicians
are lawyers.
lets fact check this for last 10 USA presidents
1) Biden = Yes , VP Senator
2) Trump = No, Businessman
3) Obama = Yes, Senator
4) Bush = No. Business man and a Governor of Texas
5) Clinton = Yes. Governor of Arkansas
6) Bush = No. Business man and a Vice President of USA
7) Reagan = No. Business man Governor of California and an actor
8 ) Carter = No. Peanut farmer and Governor of Georgia
9) Ford = Yes. VP and only President to never get a vote as President or Vice President
10) Nixon = Yes. VP, Senator and only president to quit while serving as president
a push for last ten presidents.
I would assert that USA presidents might not be a very representative sample of a "typical politician," even though sure USA presidents do end up in one of the top (if not the top / coveted) of spots.
Bitcoin "lost' temporary correlation with stocks...some people would say that there was never a correlation, but I would suggest that sometimes there is and sometimes there isn't.
That said...stocks covered all of the weekly losses today and Dow closed at the ATH. Bitcoin had a smallish move.
One explanation would be that bitcoin correlates the most with liquidity and mr market "decided" that FED would provide less liquidity going forward because UE went down.
Obviously, the move up today in btc was much more timid than the move down (on ME "jitters") earlier in the week.
Observing...
I would say: Snap out of it. You are suffering an illusion.
You might either need a bat slappening or perhaps if you just zoom out a wee bit MOAR better, then you might gain a bit of a better perspective on "what is dee cornz?" also known as honey badger, also known as king daddy, also known as my lil fiend, also known as bitcoin.
All this time "observing" and you still seem to be struggling with what we've gots here. Hopefully, you have not failed/refused to pee pare ur lil selfie for UPpity this time, and gotten over some of that there historical (or should I say hysterical) whimpiness.
you asked for it..
