clester's Account Talk

[clester]

For anyone who cares I made a change to 100% I for Wed. The Euro stocks were up this morning and I'm looking for the delayed reaction from US markets and the weak dollar to lift the I.

Beware. My picks haven't done well lately. Hope my luck changes soon.

Go to CNN.com. On the left side of the screen, click on "Business at cnn money". Then on the left side of the screen, put your pointer on "World biz", but don't click. To the left of that, a blue box will come up. In the box, you will see "World Markets". Click on that. It will show you the Asia, European, and Canadian market in close to real time.



Hop this helps .

I think the rise in the S&P was mainly due to buying of the beaten down insurance stocks. Oil is up today on lower heating oil. GDP tomorow. I think there is more potential for downside than upside. I'm staying I fund for tomorow. I'm thinking if US dives, the effect will be muted a little in Europe and give me some time to adjust. I want to get back into S or C. Maybe after election.

100% I fund for tomorow we'll see. The I fund chart still looks good.

Today was a breather day. It wasn't down much which is a bullish sign. Tomorow will depend on the GDP report. I doubt there will be any surprises.

The market has momentum on the upside. Tomorow may be a good day if no surprises. I Fund chart still looks the best to me.

Monday maybe down some. A good excuse to take profits with the election on Tuesday. Uncertainty. Will there be a clear winner?, lawsuits lasting for weeks?, Bush?, Kerry?

Tuesday will be quiet I think. Low volume.
Wednesday if all goes well I think we're off to the races. I think there will be challenges so I may wait until Wednesday morning and see how it goes.

So Friday 100% I, Monday 100% G (we're due a penny on the G fund)

Unless, of course I change my mind in the morning

I think the election results will be decisive. I think the market today is telling us that. The Polls are telling us that. Oil is going down. Charts look good. November is going to be good and I'm afraid to miss out. The I fund should give some insulation against a big US drop maybe a chance to get out if it goes bad.

Therefore, 50% G 50% I for Wednesday. probably will go 100% I for Thurs.

It Looks like Bush has won and the US narkets should react well. I'm not sure on the I fund now. The chart looks good. If US narket do well the I should follow. I think C & I have more pent up energy, so for tomorow I'll go 33 C, 33 S, 34 I.
Unless the election drags on or the markets get scared. If that happens I'll probably go 100% I.

"I-fund ahead or S-fund"
I will jump to I-FUND...BUT fOr now I dont know is it to late to jump in...:?.
maybe is time to jump to S-fund to go faster than I-FUND.

GOOD POINT OR NOT ?

By all means, if you've been in the I fund this whole time, ride it out. I know as soon as I move to the I fund, the S will be the winner. I won't jinx ya by doing that to you
