The Unloved Rally <Sad Face>

Yup, I'm movin on up with the Jeffersons. Sitting at #132 with +10.74% and hugging the tracker wall because some S funders are going to tumble today. It's the natural order of the universe - every dog gets his day.

Now if the LTRO comes in with 500 billion euros this market will light up like a bottle rocket.

The I-Fund looks good today. CHA-CHING.

Resistance at 1370 GONE...

SPX-1400 or Bust !!!

Just barely. I'm all in. Come on 1400

I could have been a contender but the fair value play cut me short again - it just proves that when you root around in the I fund you don't always find a truffle. It should all come back today I would think. Let's knock the sox off the bears - they're toasted.

We are in a struggle to hold Dow 13,000 - but I'm prepared for further breakout gains.

nice short read.... so...either a psychological barrier with more trending upwards or anemic sideways pricing indicitive of a trend losing steam.... On the last day of the month no less....hmmm

 

[Birchtree]

Well shucks thanx to the last three days I fell well short of my February goal of +$400K ending at +$128K. That still puts me ahead +$411K for the first two months - now it's on to March. I have 105 dividends the month of March for reinvestment - 24 of those are dividend increases. So I'll kick back and see where the bull takes me. There are 12 dividends due tomorrow, so break a leg. There is always a blessing somewhere.

+411 is nothing to sneeze at for two months work.

Reinvestment of increasing dividends should work like magic for your portfolio.

Do you own Hershey's? (HSY) It's on my short list.

 

[Birchtree]

I've decided not to publicize my March oceanic goal - another public embarrassment would send me into oblivion - but I do have a whisper number.

 

[MrJohnRoss]

Do I detect waning confidence from the PermaBull? Say it ain't so!

 

[Birchtree]

I'll be bullish for the next five years. The Transports are looking good today. The VIX is getting ready to drop below the 17 level and this market can ignite higher at any moment. I can feel the earth move beneath my feet as the herd is stirring.

Glass is always half full for BT...very positive....Luff it

Laszlo is saying SPX of 1700 by end of year - he must be reading my thread. Yes folks, we are certainly on a freight train of accelerating asset prices.
