    Well, after exiting for the G Lilly-pad 2 days ago with 1st Nov IFT, I was always planning to use my 2nd IFT to get back in if we get the "All Clear". With the blockbuster Nvidia report after hours yesterday, I thought that time was today, but as I was busy checking financial news, and keeping...

    Unfortunately, the Bears growled the Bulls back into the den, at the end, yet again. :(

    While I HATE exiting at a recent low, I have decided to use my 1st Nov IFT exit my full stock investment mix (of C,S, and I) and go 100% G today. When we had a late day reversal Friday, the usual pattern would be a big bounce Monday with follow thru to a new high in the coming days/weeks. When...

    True, but when those first "Gloom and Doom" reports come up, that often leads to the "Wall of Worry" that propels the market to new highs in the coming weeks. Then complacency sets in even amongst some of those folks. THATS when its time to cash in and run to safety, IMHO. VIX a good tool for that.

    Well, final bell has closed on the day and the month. Some good timing, and good diversification has kept me near the top spot much of the past week. Was #4 on the "full" monthly standings, but had to go to the regular ones to see where the others were invested in. Going into today, I concluded...

    As stated yesterday, if markets are down significantly this morning, I might be jumping in. So far as we approach the IFT deadline, they are trending down, but with volatility (see charts below) so hard to read what the final outcome will be. However, if they finish strongly up, then maybe...

    I don't see signs of anything structurally wrong with markets, and with the I fund staying positive, this might just be investors wary of the US-China trade threats, while markets were at all-time highs. The C and S both came down near their 50 day EMA, before rising a bit now falling again. If...

    I dunno, its been falling off its peak for the past 2 hours, pretty strong drop of near 1%. You gotta love when the finance headlines are betrayed by the red stock tickers themselves.

    The melt up in stocks continues

    Don't know if shutdown is the ONLY reason, but the market seems to sense some of your fears today.

    We look like we're peaking today on our 7-12 day upward cycle, similar the past few months (see chart). At record highs, on top of a week-long upward surge...and going into a weekend and into the worst seasonality of the year next week. Everything I'm looking points to a Monday morning...

    The melt up in stocks continues

    I-Fund continues its surge. Ignore it, at your portfolio's peril.
