JimmyJoe's Account Talk

Last Friday's complacency in the market was a signal to jump in. I've been in this whole month and I note that I, with those that have been in it, find ourselves down only 1.5% for the month. These next few weeks, and even January, will see some great gains. Glad tidings to all.

This again, is a newsworthy item. The Dow is at its inflation adjusted all time high. I believe this is good news for the market.

What makes this good news for we TSP folks is that we are in the breach. If you are in the S&P like I am, we are locked and loaded for the immediate future. Quoting from the link, "And broader stock indexes such as the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite Index still aren't close to their own inflation-adjusted records. The Dow got there first because its blue-chip companies generally suffered less than the broader stock market."
 
Merry Christmas to all. All of you guys and women are great. Everyone of you on this board are pleasant, well spoken using text, and informed. Be safe and be kind to all you meet. Forgive others and you'll forgive yourself. We're not perfect but we can love and be loved in return.
 
We are in escape velocity mode. I am strapped in. Amoeba is right next to me. I kidnapped him and made him go all in, S fund. We are passing Saturn and will soon see S&P 1900. He has tried to pull the escape hatch but I somehow talked him out of it. He's blacked out a few times from the infusion of several hundred dollars into his TSP account. I'll continue to keep you all informed for as long as possible, until we are beyond radio transmission.
 
You gotta be kidding me. Where in the world do they trade on New Years Day? Does the market truly never sleep?
 
I've checked the S&P futures and as of this hour, we are seeing it at positive 6.5 points. I've seen it higher, say 24 hours ago. If we get another good start to the year, 2014 will make me as happy as 2013 did. If we get a good start, the difference will be that my mouth will be turned up at the corners just knowing I'm on the plus side with this market. I'll be making as much as I take. The difference will be that my happiness will be in real time, watching the markets rise with my account replenished from decades ago, erroneously playing it. I've found that you can't make moves while the big boys just go ahead, making the big bucks. 2014 is going to be one, big, easy, fiscal reward, again.
 
Your Personal Investment Performance (PIP) for the past 12 months ending 12/31/2013 is 30.2%. Best I've ever done, by far. Began a year ago. See BT's recent forum comment about investing while retired. The only way to fly. The opposite way of safe thinking. It works when you've got nothing to lose. I was down to way under 100k at the first of 2013. I made some great money while taking some at the same time. It was my pleasure. Boom.
 
I think the FED would like to cool this market. Make it cool for some. Not fooling me. It's still as hot as a bandit's pistol.
