Saw Tom's column (I am a regular reader), he seems kinda down on this market like sumthin is going to pull us down soon. Seasonality for April shows it is usually a great month, right ??
Hope you are WRONG, Tom!


quite a few IFTs submitted by our people, mostly yesterday. We seem to be ducking out, or if getting or staying in, spreading our loot out widely among the stock funds. Interesting.

Of course some of us put all our eggs in one basket, but not that many did. Good luck to all, hoping for a good week.

Okay, well after spending the better part of the day needlessly stirring the pot over at Politics.

Ive come home to address the the more important things in life. Making money and climbing the Tracker.

Ended today at P185...Looks like we still have a good bit of folks Languishing in Safety just above me, or not heavily invested.
I feel Good.

the S Fund is the vehicle thats primed to ascend. Im going along for the ride.

10:00 am : The dollar has drifted off of its morning high so that it now trades with a modest 0.2% gain. That dip has helped draw some bids for materials stocks, which have made their way into positive territory to trade with a 0.1% gain. Despite the pullback in the greenback, the stock market hasn't been able to extend its move from opening lows. As for the Nasdaq Composite, it came in contact with the unchanged mark, but it was quickly rebuffed

I must be bored, posting this.

I see the dollar in an intermediate uptrend within a rising channel, but in the long-term it's Bearish in a downward channel. I'm waiting for a reaction to the top of the downward channel but that may take a few weeks to happen.

You lucked out. Had we closed 1 hour early I would have smoked you on the tracker

Folks, we started the day out as a continuation of yesterday's downswing but by jimmeny the funds are struggling upwards I think we may see a postive day,

I didnt look, is the dollar dropping?
Bad news for those hoping to buy in low I guess this isnt the day.

You cant keep a great bull market down it seems...

Edit, yes the dollar is dropping (really, hasnt it been doing that for years now)

 

[FAB1]

Someone in another thread posted the C fund made 0% from 1999-2009...

Hint to the clueless, (you have to buy and sell, repeat when necessary)
Yea, have fun with that 4% from the G (which took a decade to earn)

 

[FAB1]

"I" was the big loser for yesterday tho drop in the dollar cushioned all the funds.
I was happy just to stay "green" with my little 0.03%.

Hope we end the week on a good note, another postive day for the S fund.

Monday and Tuesday, on Vacation, but I will try to post via my mobile if I can.

DOW 11,000 today?

Could be.

TA DA~

In the last 10 minutes of trading, the Dow briefly crossed the 11000-point mark to touch an intraday high of 11000.98, only to pull back to slightly below the psychologically-important threshold. It is the highest close for the blue chip index since September 2008 - the month Lehman Brothers imploded.
Jason Weisberg, a NYSE trader with Seaport Securities, said he expects the Dow will close above the 11,000 level on Monday, baring any very negative economic news.
"There's still a lot of non-believers out there, but will push through it and be on our way to 12000 soon enough," he said.

If you want to run with the big dogs, buy "S".

sorry I didnt answer eariler, was on a wee vacation.

This trip UP has been so relentless it must be very frustrating to anyone waiting for a dip to buy into. I also wanted to buy at lower prices back at the end of March, there was no significant pullback but I invested anyhow b/c youve got to be in to Win.

 

[FAB1]

I see the Tracker isnt updated yet - techincal difficulties??

I wanted to see my latest gains, while I still have them!

Today get a dip, or a ride sideways. But surprises seem
to abound also in this market, so who knows?
