  • The 6th prime number is 13.
  • The 13th prime number is 41.
  • The 41st prime number is 179.

125 + (13) = 138

  • 138 is the number to which 41 must be added to reach 179:

138 + (41) = (179)



  • The 7 day win-streak from March 5 to March 15, 2021 ended on March 16 (the first anniversary of the largest point drop in the Dow's history).
  • From March 16 (3/16) to June 13 (6/13) is 89 days.


  • 89 is the 11th Fibonacci number.
  • The 11th prime number is 31 (the reflection of 13).
  • The 31st prime number is 127.
  • (11 + 31 + 127) = 169 or 13 squared.

  • 1:27 is 13:27 on the twenty four hour clock.

The total loss during the five day losing streak was 1189 points:

86 + 94 + 266 + 210 + 533 = 1189

  • 1327 - 1189 = 138
  • Remember: 138 is the number to which 41 must be added to reach 179, the 41st prime number.

  • 1189 + (264) = 1453
  • Recall: The total gain during the 7 day win streak (from March 5 to 15) was 2029 points.
  • 2029 is the 308th prime number.
  • 1721 is the 268th prime number.
  • 1453 is the number to which 268 must be added to reach 1721.
  • 1721 is the number to which 308 must be added to reach 2029.

Including the decimals in the calculation:

85.85 + 94.42 + 265.66 + 210.22 + 533.37 = 1189.52  1190

  • The 179th prime number is 1063:



1063 + (264) = 1327


1190 - 1063 = 127

  • 547 is the 101st prime number.
  • 101 is the 26th prime number.


  • During the 5 day losing streak, the total loss was 1504 points.

  • 1693 is the 264th prime number.
  • 1429 is the number to which 264 must be added to reach 1693

1403 + (26) = 1429


1403 + (547) = 462 + (16*93)
