C-fund

Re: 350Z's 2007 I Fund Thread

350z,I jumped into the C. My concern is the Euro. The dollar is oversold with the Yen and Euro. BOE meets this week also. http://yahoo.reuters.com/news/artic...3-07_09-12-36_L07298499&type=comktNews&rpc=44 ...
Investors are also keeping an eye on a two-day Bank of England interest rate-setting meeting, due for a decision at 1200 GMT on Thursday. Consensus forecasts say that the central bank would leave rates unchanged at 5.25 percent.

Yes, I completely agree. The dollar will probably be up tomorrow. I'm also agreeing about the C fund. One of my indicator is giving me a buy signal for the C fund. My problem is that I wanted to see a bigger drop in the C before I jump back in. That might happen in the afternoon though. Our deadline sucks.

The DJIA is the only thing holding up the C Fund today. Any sell-off with the DJIA will really enchance the selling pressure on the C. Let's see if it does the opposite of yesterday off that 12:00 buying spree. Notice that 12100 level was right at 12:00 yesterday. http://www.tsptalk.com/returns/returns.html notice how the C is really lagging behind. There has to be a move . imo

Ferdinand has left the pasture gate open - ya'll come on in. We got ample room. The European Central Bank reported that money supply grew at its fastest rate in 17 years in January in countries that use the euro, a trend that could argue for higher rates there.

 

[Elgallo]

Just buy the laggard.

This is an interesting visual representation of what is going on with the TSP funds. This is a horse race isn't it?

I wish I had followed my buy signal yesterday.

 

[clester]

Do we need a close above 1407 (2-28 close) to indicate a new short term uptrend? It looks like the resistance level to me.

 

[James48843]

Nope- not 1365 today. 1374 on the close.

But again, it petered out in the last hour of trading, and sunk to a trading day low at the close.

Again- it will drop tomorrow.

Perhaps we'll hit the 1365 rough patch tomorrow. That could signal entry into "phase 2", but I still think we are on track for a 1320 before it turns around for good.

I'm sticking on 1320 for the bottom here.

I blew it and jumped back in yesterday, and got hammered.

I'm stuck riding it out now.

1320 on the way.

 

[Birchtree]

SPX of 1320 is a -9.5% correction - enough pain to make me happy.

 

[Remo]

I'm with ya James! Look on the bright side... we sure have a helluva lot of shares just waiting to explode back up when the C finally takes off!

 

[Birchtree]

Repunsel,

C fund will climb this week - don't despair, drop that hair.

 

[Wolverine]

Birchtree............You really that positive with the C this week are ya?

 

[Birchtree]

I've been deep in the C fund since Feb'04, another year will hardly make a difference - just give me them shares. But this heightened volatility does add a flavor that has potential. We are still on a primary Dow Theory buy signal. With the underlying internals strength, the risk is being out not being in, at this point at least.

It's interesting that the market tanked as soon as the Dow Theory buy signal was generated - when transports made a new high. Same thing happened after the last buy signal. I realize it is a long-term buy signal but maybe it's a good short-term sell signal as well?

 

[Birchtree]

You are prescient from your contrary perspective - is now a good time to begin the process of home shopping? The banks soon will have them on sale.

 

[James48843]

With all the negative energy and comments out there, we may get the rocket ship higher here.

Contrarian......

I'm in.
