Intrepid_Timer's PUBLIC Account Talk

Sy Harding says; "In 2010 the S&P 500 gained 143 points, or 12.8% for the year, but its gains on just the first three days of each month amounted to 229 points, or 20.5%. The pattern has pretty much continued so far this year, with nice gains in the first weeks of both January and February."

Birch, are you suggesting an exit to "G" fund on Thursday? The seasonality for March coincides with your theory as the next couple days after are negative.
 
Two month report card for my timing strategies:

Main goal: 24% return every year.

Present return: 4.23% Yearly projection: 25.38%

Days in equity funds: 9 out of a possible 39.

F fund stategy: Up 1.06%

Being in equity funds for only 9 days reduces risk of a market sell off because of outside interference or market cycles.

Well, if he's using shotgun pellets (of the right size for turkeys), they aren't exactly multi-use. Since he said "Boom!" that sure sounds like a shotgun. I say go ahead and go hunting.
:p

C'mon guys! A 22 long is a lot cheaper than a shotgun round! Put a decent scope (for head shots) on a good old Marlin and you got Thanksgiving dinner at a hundred yards:D! (For the non-hunting folk on this thread, what I am describing is very illegal and my comments are only meant as a joke!)
 
Since I keep hearing the news constantly repeating that oil prices will still skyrocket and that the market is due for a 10% correction would it be crazy to put your ETF's into an inverse fund such as TZA and just wait out the big drop?

TNA and TZA aren't meant to be held for long term investments but more for short term trading. Long term, they won't follow what the Russell 2000 is doing.
