Mayday's Account Talk

Re: Mayday allocation talk

G penny most likely will pay today F would be the place to be for safety. I'm expecting a little lift today in equities. Seriously thinking about moving to F before deadline and staying until Monday by noon.

Not that I really go to the G for the penny, a couple folks, Tom included, have posted that they expect the penny to pay on Thursday.

I was thinking F would be a good place to rest for the rest of the week myself. Im just a bit concerned with the inflation numbers coming out Thursday and Friday. Increased inflation sentiments would drive down F, right? Did you consider this or are you betting for neutral/reduced inflation numbers?

Im trying to figure out all the dynamics myself for todays move...

My concern lies more with this correction. After the 400 point drop equities bounced back the next day. I was anticipating after that OS to move higher in the evening bad move got burned. This move into S is only for today. I will most likely go to the safety of the F. I see your concern with inflation #s rightly so yet my concern is a correction to dow 12000 or below.

Your right G penny may pay tomorrow I just looked at the share price spread sheet may make that one day move to the G today instead of F. Thanks weatherweenie.

Re: Mayday allocation talk

I'm looking at the charts and wondering about another leg down below the 200DMA to the May high of 11600 before this correction is over. The Dow seems to be holding above 12K it dipped below this mark a bit yesterday. After the Quad Witch will it happen any thoughts?

Re: Mayday allocation talk

Looks like the charts are showing us hitting resistance I in turn will retreat to the F fund.

If I had a pile of sterling I think bonds in the US look like they would give me twice the return?

Not a good day to be in the market. Looking at a triple digit down day.

I have it from the "Stock Traders Almanac - 2007." It's a kind of a "Farmers Almanac" with financial over-tones!....

There's got to be some significance to the saying. Like the end of the school year summer vacation. Lay off stocks and go to the beach. Go spend your money and live a little.

Re: Mayday allocation talk

My concern is the same as before. The market characteristics are changing faster than ever before with instant world media coverage and instant access to your accounts. I believe the May to October period will carry more risk, but could have some excellent opportunities. Last July is a good example.

Good luck mayday!

Re: Mayday allocation talk

I'm wondering if this rally on wall street has anything to do with the offer to buy-out Dow-Jones? How long will it last? When the deal falls through or refused how far will the fall be?

Re: Mayday allocation talk

Overseas a little red this morning. Gold inching down>Dollar inching up, and guess who's in the I fund 100% Got a little yesterday looks like they want a little back today. Japan is still low in the channel and should rebound tomorrow depending on what happens today.

Misery loves company. I'm 50% in the I today, 50% in the C. Got impatient waiting on the sidelines. Looking like I'll learn yet another lesson from Mr. Market today.

Re: Mayday allocation talk

Weatherweenie,
IMO, if ebbtracker and 12% are right, your mix for today seems very good; and may prove better yet, if the C fund should recover before the I fund. At least the C fund has proven to be less volatile lately. Good luck!

Re: Mayday allocation talk

A down day should bring in the dip buyers. As it stands now I'm with 12% on the S fund right now it is riding below the 20 DMA C fund is still high in the channel at this time. The fed hopefully will be kind. I'm leaning towards S fund today.
