    Still staying in 100% stocks. I expect a small pullback, followed by more growth. I am not confident in my short-term timing, so I am just playing long and not worrying about a little backslide. Moving funds around as I think the I fund has lost a bit of its lustre. S and C look good for the...

    Tough call what to do. I missed the last few days of rally, and I do think a small pull back could come soon. But, my timing has been pretty bad lately, and I do think we will go significantly higher in the next couple of months, so I don't want to get too cute. I am taking today's pullback...

    Today could be some decent gains, but the market looks like it really needs a rest. Stepping aside for a little while COB today 50 G, 50 F

    I still am worried about housing and a slowing economy. But, the strong seasonal trend before the holiday, and the reduced inflation fear, has me making a quick move into stocks. I anticipate I will take some more off the table next week to avoid the historically poor market in September. COB...

    The housing data are scary. People will start to feel poorer, and may spend less. That, combined with Fed talk of more rate hikes and the seasonal weakness, make me want to play a bit more defense. Given the Fed talk, F fund may be less attractive than I previously thought. So, using G and...

    I figure if there is significant profit taking from the recent rally, it could happen later today. If not, it could be a good sign of things to come. So, I am going a little less defensive. I also will probably avoid G in the near future and use the F fund for relative safety, as I think F...

    Anticipating some short term profit-taking, so am playing some defense. Was tempted to go 100 G, but I do think we could be at the start of a long term rally so I don't want to get too cute. I don't see the dollar falling much further in the short term, so I will also diversify my stocks. COB...

    Haven't made many moves lately. But, with the economy slowing, and rate hikes potentially near an end, I am moving all of my stock funds into I in hopes of a continued falling dollar. I am keeping 30% in F for relative safety and hoping for a decent return if people get skittish about stocks...

    Going 100% F COB today.

    Playing the I fund

    That should just about offset what I lost in the F fund today! Given the way things started today, I am happy just to break even.

    Market Talk / April 9 - 15

    Re: April 13th I will be with you, much of the time anyway. In fact, I am there already as of COB today. The "sell in May and go away" approach may be even more prudent this year with rising gas and oil prices, plus the housing market (and refinancing) slowing down. We had a great run since...

    Not looking good so far today. Looks like my move into I was ill-advised. But, the day is young, so who knows. Either way, I'm backing out to get the expected penny in G Monday. Happy easter to all! today: 100 G

    Dipping a toe back in. Hoping that any damage from the poor oil inventory report will be done by COB today. The I fund could be ripe for a bounce, so I am putting some into I. My strategy is to be more agressive in historically strong months, and April qualifies. If we had this same...

    Tally for March '06

    Hi Fundsurfer, First, thanks for all the work you put into this. It must be a beast to maintain. I have a suggestion, since you asked. Overall I think this is a great presentation of a lot of data. But, I wonder if the policy of showing people only once is the best way to display the...
