    +1% monthly goal achieved by miracle of the I-fund and it's fair value pricing; whether skill or luck; so went completely into 100% G fund last COB, until May 1...the tariff fuse remains lit for China; the status quo for tariffs of this country alone will create quite the economic reaction very...

    My pathetic goal for April 2025 of not going negative was failing hope with the F fund, but now resurrected with a few more IFT moves; cashing in half today. Maybe I will make it up 1%. Maybe not. At some point, POTUS social media posts/changes-of-mind, will have less of an effect than the...

    Nope. Was all cash, I was watching when the move happened, but it took at least 5minutes for MSNBC to disclose the Truth Social post, and a half hour to give details. By then the move was essentially complete. There's still substantial tariff that, if implemented in 90 days, would kill earnings...

    I still believe the above for the time being; in summary, there may be no meaningful bounce notwithstanding the decline so far, it seems extremely risky to time it, and the market is likely going considerably lower. Everything. Only G-fund appears safe and I have ended this buzz-cut bailing to...

    Well, I sold my shorts last couple days and, while there's absolutely no indication that POTUS will waver on tariffs, he has a lifetime history of bathing in the glory of "making a deal". Not all is or can be domesticated so the potential offers to reduce tariffs are difficult to predict...

    Yesterday and especially today, I placed sizable short bets, although the low volume updrift was puzzling. But with tariff details, that is now dumb money. Next mega issue? Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

    Closed March ahead of the G-fund after all (0.44%, catching it on 3/31/2025, although I had caught it previously on 3/20/2025 before P-ing it away). I will lower my goal further for April to being non-negative (>0.0%). Obviously I would like to do better, but these are difficult times. This...

    With two trading days left it doesn't look like I'm gonna make it; don't think I beat G-fund for 3 consecutive days all month; I tried; dammitall.

    Last week's huge Friday talked myself into blowing my 2nd IFT on 60% equities yesterday. Bailed today. Feel lucky to get out down a few tenths and some tracker spots. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

    Senior haircuts raised to $18 now. Bought more gold (GDX), Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B), foreign ETFs (EFA, EEM), lots of cash.

    Fat the whuck was that move today? on light volume as well....POTUS spoke but said nothing. I'm thinking something is up for next week but a move away from any of the various sources of upheaval could put air under the deadcat: Elon (toss him under a bus)? Ukraine (get tough, instead of soft...

    Hell no to buying here either, a 3rd very negative bull-bear aaii spread published this morning, but this is not even close to capitulation trade volume, or VIX extreme, that would suggest a reversal. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

    Nope, not buying today either, or the rest of this week, not likely this month either. Head in sand approach. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

    Still no thanks, I remember the 2022 beating, like this (couldn't find the modern version, in English): https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?&q=the+bounty+whipping+clip&&mid=66CE61D4F47F61F096FF66CE61D4F47F61F096FF&&mcid=2B14FC4422A341B280EE5CE9013A2FF9&FORM=VRDGAR
