12%ayear's Account Talk

Re: 12%ayear's Account

In addition to safety, are you looking for the G penny? What is the best estimate for the G penny?
 
Thus far after yesterday...+10.20% for the year. I have a feeling we will see a pull-back today. I am in no rush to chase the market unless I see more data. The US dollar is oversold next to the EURO. The I Fund looks very very very toppy.
 
Have less than $25K in savings? Get in line

http://money.cnn.com/2007/04/10/pf/retirement/ebri_survey_2007/index.htm?postversion=2007041106 very sad news....the bottom line...contribute as much as you can in the TSP and invest wisely...Great way to increase your TSP amount...put in your COLAs and raises. This will also help you at the end of the year with your taxes. If you do not have the max. put in that is. Also, start an IRA and buy stocks. Buy value beaten up stocks. Like when YHOO was in the low 20s range or EBAY was beaten up. I buy and sell stocks and keep the profits in shares in the IRA. You do not have to pay until you cash out. This is a great way to build a portfolio. Buy in different sectors from oil,tech,food,gold,and etc.
 
Home prices to fall for first time in 2007

http://money.cnn.com/2007/04/11/news/economy/home_prices/index.htm?postversion=2007041112 Tuesday No. 2 home builder D.R. Horton (Charts) reported a 37 percent drop in the number of new homes it sold in the latest quarter, citing continued weakness in prices and saying the typical start to the spring home buying season hasn't begun.
While Horton is expected to still report a profit for the period when it reports results, No. 3 builder Pulte Homes (Charts) reported a loss in its most recent period, as did No. 4 Centex (Charts) and New Jersey-based Hovnanian Enterprises (Charts).
No. 1 home builder Lennar (Charts) and No. 5 KB Home (Charts) both reported losses in their quarters ending in November, although both returned to an operating profit in their most recent period. The CEO of KB Home said Tuesday that he expects the housing slump to get worse.
Home prices: Don't expect a quick rebound

Feels like a trap-day. Higher open and then sell-off. FOMC later today.
Posted above earlier.....I think the selling will pick up here, the last half-hour. Looking for a lower/flat open tomorrow,then a rally to the upside.:)
 
Hope you are right and that we don't fall through the cracks! If we get a rally in USM, Asia and Europe might follow suit!

Setting-up like I thought it would. Feeling buyers will step in and squeeze shorts. Like when futures are red.

Uncle Sam is a big buyer too....deep pockets with lots of unaccountable M3 money in it.:)
Its a matter of National Security... keep this economy afloat until the after effects of the World Trade attack and high oil get consolidated.:worried:

Looks like you made a pretty good call today, but of course you know "it's not over until it's over" (Casey Stingle).:D
