SPX 1700. It is a tough world out here. When people communicate via verbal or text, it has got to be easily interpreted. It has got to be well written if communication is conveyed in text. Otherwise it is an affront to all that reads text. I worked in an environment where time wasted was common when having to interpret emails that were written poorly. Some even wrote such emails on purpose. As one of independent wealth, i.e. retired, I don't have to deal with any of the afforementioned. Bottom line, if a person wants to be considered with respect when writing on this board, use correct syntax. SPX 1700 by the end of the week.

Ok folks, I'm catching flack for my lousy response to GUCHI's comment and question. I misinterpreted his comment. Apologies all around. The answer to the question above is, "Heck yes," this market is going to go higher this Summer. Is it, will it be an untypical Summer? Yes. But for those of us who look at this market while considering inflation, today's 1660 SPX is actually 1800. This market will be relentless and climb to 1900 or 2000 in 365 days so jump in and stay in. This is what I say as I gaze into my crystal ball. And maybe when I gaze into my crystal ball I fail to see the real, OK world around me. Thanks for your question GUCHI and I hope I've answered it well enough. Have a great June. And to the number crunchers using charts and graphs (good info in a normal market), maybe this is keeping most of you out of this great, once in a decade market. There's still time to get in and make a profit. Hear that Amoeba!? I'm trying to keep it light and keep it serious. Sorta like Heath Ledger's fantastic Joker character when he asks, "Why so serious?". Yeah folks, I'm out there, but I plan to make some money right now! Join me.
jj hmmmmm lets try this again... I'm here to learn and make money and have a few laughs on the way. your apology should not come because you are catching flack, but from you and how you truely feel. your apology is accepted. it may be just me but once i'm stung like that i am cautious. If you knew me you would say that i'm the easiest person in the world to get along with until you cross me and even then I would just keep a close eye on you, which is the case here. I'm not going to sweat it since its not worth my time. anyway best of luck to you and lets keep it moving.

I found out long ago that it's impossible to please everyone - as a matter of fact I'm sure some members still have me on ignore. It's their loss, not mine. So just be yourself and have some fun while providing comments and education. Making money in a disciplined manner is not always easy - but when it does become easy it's simply delicious. I can make more money in a week retired than I ever could working. But you have to work to build time in grade and develope a good financial base. No seeking preservation of capital for me - I need capital appreciation all the way.

This market is a living breathing organism. It is adjusting to its new surroundings at the SPX 1600 - 1700 range. It's just like someone getting into a swimming pool taking time to adjust to the water temperature. Once the market feels comfortable with this range, it'll frolic and play and get happy up to 1700. Then it'll go to a new "pool". The 1800 - 1900 pool. Then the 2000 - 2500 pool. Ha ha. I'm not kidding. You see, affluent people don't think like normal people. To make money in this market you have to drop a lot of baggage. Change a whole set of self imposed rules. Get happy.

Argh, avast ye mates. Tuned to hit 1650 SPX tomorrow. Did I say 1700 by then earlier this month? Here's the deal. 1700 by next Friday. Glad I stayed in for most of the year. Makes it easier to weather storms. Congrats to those that have stayed in as well. Now, let's make some money. Why am I so sure? Because SPX 1500 five or ten years ago means the same thing as SPX 1800 "taday", as John Wayne used to pronounce it, pilgrim. Simple math. Adjusted inflationary numbers. I've said this before and it's true. It'll be proven in two months when SPX is 1800.

Ha ha. All I can do is throw my head back and laugh. Bonds are up. That old Bernake. Making the bond market our base. It continues to provide balance and base to our upwardly mobile stock market. Ha ha. Today I'll sit here and make what I made working for a whole 8 hours. It's called investing. Making your money work for you. SPX 1700 end of this week. Ha ha. Patience. Waiting till the money's within one's grasp. Then striking like a snake. SPX 1700 then higher, much higher.

Some around here think you and I are too bullish - is that even possible. Sadly, the great majority of investors and speculators like RMI haven't trained themselves to fight the crowd. Instead of buying low in extreme fear, they sell low. Then they stay out until long after the markets have rallied dramatically, only belatedly returning to buy high. It is only the contrarians, the wise minority that have hardened and steeled themselves to trade fear rationally, that buy low, sell high, and earn fortunes.

There are plenty of us it turns out Birch. Check out the top of the leader board. They ain't moving from equities. And when people consider how they earned their positions, they see why. They get on a good horse, buy in when the stocks go up, just one time, one time baby, then hang in there for the fortunes to come. I said long ago, get a good attitude, believe in the markets, take note of financial clues, like Greenspan saying 4 months ago, "Forget the economy, focus on the markets". I'm on this areoplane and I'm not getting off for the foreseen future. Like you, I think the I fund is the place to be now.
