350zCommtech's Account Talk

[GGal]

My husband, the SMALL BUSINESS MAN, has been telling me for months that we are going into a recession.

He bases this on: collections on account grow more difficult with each passing month. People are still buying, but not paying so great. When it gets really bad, they will stop buying.

He, in case anybody gives a cr@p, sells products and service to other small businesses.

He swears he knew about the 2000 fiasco 6 months before the news media reported it.

Of course, it's all a matter of perception.

History has shown that the markets will rally 2-3 months into recession. It could be a lagg, disconnect, or just plain "a suckers rally".

I'm not about to go into a buy and hold or capital preservation mode just yet.

The F fund does look comfy now......I'm surprised no one else thought of it. Don't be shocked if people start joining you.

Not yet. The trend is still up!

I agree with Jeff. There's just too much momentum right now. And ofcourse, the infamous "Santa's Rally". Depending on what happens tomorrow, I might be departing the F fund and going back to the I fund.

 

[ATCJeff]

Bold move my friend. I bailed out of the I fund today.

My decision was based on the dollar being flat today, and I'm not talking about the dollar index. As long as the USM holds, Japan should continue it's rally. I hope.

 

[350zCommTech]

Looks like the bond folks have been right all along. It's recession time.

Went 100% F fund.

 

[GGal]

It's very tempting to join you!

Come on in. I think S&S was the only other person that went 100% F. We can make room for one more.

Although, I'll be ready jump back in the I fund. I think the stock market is still pricing in a "soft landing", despite what the bond traders have been forcasting the last 10-12 months.

 

[350zCommTech]

Looks like I got some company.

 

[Fivetears]

You sure did. Tried to get blood from the turnip today in the I. Waiting for the final number.

With the late rally in the USM, there won't be -FV. I think you'll escape ok.

 

[grandma]

Come on in.
.

I'll scoot over - I've had a good portion in F since the beginning of the month. ...slow but fairly steady increase. It is paying more frequently than the G.

 

[350zCommTech]

I'm thinking the dollar is goning to fall tomorrow. Looks like Europe might have been driving up the USM?

 

[350zCommTech]

No change. I'm waiting for Japan to rebound.

 

[350zCommTech]

Well, I finally got that rally in Japan. The dollar might fall tomorrow but the markets wil propably also. Tough decision today.

Jumping around too much in a bull run makes you look like an idiot!


Yes, I'm an idiot!:nuts:

 

[Fivetears]

Naugh... like Bugs Bunny when he finds gold, perhaps.

An idiot... you are most certainly not.

You do good things for the members in this electronic community, and I appreciate your input.
