Still 100 S. I believe we'll head back up starting next week. It's interesting how the VIX AND the indices have dropped the past two days.

Still holding 100 S and waiting for blast off.

Hope blast off is soon -- I've worn out all my parachutes!

Hang in there, end of the month right around the corner!!

Still holding 100 S which I bought on Feb 8th at the price of $18.27. Current price as I speak is about $18.33 so it's still a winner by a little bit. I've adjusted my trading to accommodate the new TSP rules of 2-3 a month so I'll have to endear a little market weakness once in awhile. I've only made one transfer this month. Too bad we can't carry it over.

yeah, I saw that too. yahoo has a similar problem with the TNX

It is a foreshadowing! Get ready for the global selloff next week.

 

[Gumby]

Yeah, the charts have a problem. I was expecting a drop today and when I brought up the SPX...the first thing that caught me eye was the 1234. That is when my monitor about got the coffee shower. I then saw the 90+% drop and was sure it was in error. Definitely got my attention though.

I still think there is some more downside to this market. Some people just don't seem to understand what the implications of $103 BBL oil is going to do to the average working man. Another 100 points off of todays S&P low is going to be close to the 1234. I think it will happen sooner than later.
Now...if I have the nerve to place the bet with retirement $$$$$.

Look at the US markets from about 10:15 to 11:15. Tell me that wasn't a buy program or injection of some sort. I think we'll end down today and tomorrow and then I might jump back in tomorrow. Still 100 G.

If it wasn't too cute of an explanation, I'd call it the post snack break buy, pre lunch sell program. :nuts:

You all can call me 12 1\2% now. LOL Just kidding.

2 of my 3 indicators are saying BUY now but since we are in a bear market, I'll wait for all 3 to go green. This would of saved me some monies earlier this year.

 

[Intrepid_Timer]

My other indicator just went green. Of course this is too late for our TSP, go figure. I'll be going long in my brokerage accounts.

I just realized something, watch for the government to start blocking brokerage websites soon.................
