Today is Fibonacci Day

 

Fibonacci and the Stock Market

Today in History: Today is Fibonacci Day. A Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers where a number is the sum of the two numbers before it. For example: 1, 1, 2, 3...is a Fibonacci sequence. Here, 2 is the sum of the two numbers before it (1+1). Similarly, 3 is the sum of the two numbers before it (1+2). November 23 is celebrated as Fibonacci day because when the date is written in the mm/dd format (11/23), the digits in the date form a Fibonacci sequence: 1,1,2,3. https://www.timeanddate.com/holidays/fun/fibonacci-day

The Fibonacci sequence pops up in everything from nature to music to computer science to the stock market.

I came across this interesting comment on Youtube:

"1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144... (...233.377.610...)

- I was noticing a while back that 144 is the 12th # in the sequence...

- 12 is also its root

- &if you take 144's mirror-441, it's root is 21, the mirror of 12 who's square is 144

- same thing with 13 (13x13=169 31x31=961)

(I haven't bothered to check how many more numbers might do that but I notice that not all do, so that' is kind of interesting but I don't know if its profound or significant) or if I should see it as pointing toward something else.

Also, this could be meaningless or just coincidence... but I was also recalling how I read that the Mayan's use 144,000 (144,000 days in a Baktun) and also 144,000 is used in the Christian Bible too. Maybe someone has some thoughts on this too.

Also, the divine number is neat in the way in which if you square 1.618 [Golden Ratio] it will be roughly the same as if you added 1.0 to it. Kind of weird."
