Veeeeeery tempting to bail out of stocks and for two reasons: the day looked strong this morning--do I take my profits now before it stumbles? Later, it got a little crummy--do I need tosell now to buy back soon at a lower price?
I took my profits with a couple of my stocks, especially the one with a 355 P/E. There, I have some profits/preservation of capital and won't have puertorico's words haunting me if I rode them down.
Back to TSP.Tom takes some off the table. Pretty darn compelling. I speculate todays closing prices to be 12.84 S, 11.77 C and plug them into my visual FBO graph. My, my, I should probably bail, but not----quite----there. I am thinking a March 31st-like pattern and hopefully not a March 2nd-like pattern.
I wish TSP trades were at least at today's closing prices, let alone real-time. Hmmm...what will closing prices be tomorrow. Hmmm...so close. I had five minutes to decide. I hate making rushed decisions. I stayed put at 30C/70S.
My rationale: I think the market is still on an upward courseand this will be a very short respite, one that is indicative and necessary for such an upward swing of this size. I think any dip has a greater chance of leaving me buying back my shares at a higher price.
Also, I spared myself from having to make the "when to buy back" decision.
