Again, no disrespect but my gut tells me to stick with my plan. Sticking with my original thoughts on market. 25 G, 25 c and 50 S. Just me.



Out of here, good luck

Ouch . Maybe you will get the penny in G fund. Because the other two - no penny for you.

Hold and Hope - The alter of hold and hope that has slaughter so many. Continues it sacrafices of the sheepy masses. :shock:

Hold and hope is an fund managers dream - market can fall 77.2% and you hear them say crap like "But we are buying more shares", "Our dollar cost average is being lowered" and my favorite "It will come back". Nas is still down 60%. We are not going to see 5000 on the NAS probably in our lifetimes. But yes it will come back it may be 50 years from now...but yes you will be correct. Chant after me - hold and hope, hold and hope - the brain washing continues. This is the fund company line of crap. Wake up! Wake up! Hold and hope DOES NOT WORK.

I am sorry but, not to be disrespectful but, I have been watching a lot of you and rerading your comments and have decided that based upon a lot of your advice you are missing the boat. Too much technical and not enough common sense.

Just letting you know while the majority of you have been sitting on sidelines, I have been having good returns. No Techs, just common sense. Try it and go with it.

Thanks and out of here.

Hey where did you go?

When the market rallies for two days he will be back saying how great everything is. Market goes down 8% and does a dead cat bounce of2% and you hear "I am up 2%". Starts going down - do not hear a peek.

Law 1 of Hold and Hope. If the market goes up that counts towards your return. When it goes down that is a buying opportunity and is not factored into your total return.

Come back so I can tell you - "A closed mouth gathers no foot".

Dr. this is for you. If some some of these things happen that you talking about, what is the defense? I mean it really doesn't matter what you do G/S/C or I what ever you have will become worthless. I do savings bonds for my secure investment and play with TSP, those will also be worthless. Does this then mean that I could sell my 95 Honda for $200,000 and pay off my house? I remember when I was a kid seeing a news broadcast of people in some far off country hauling wheelbarrows full of money to go grocery shopping. Is this what you are talking about. If so is diversifying in physical Gold maybe an option of some safety?

Take the wheel barrow! Commodities my friend.

Gold is worthless unless you can buy it outside the country. You want collectible coins. Since that is overpriced now. There will be a pull back. You want to change your USDs into foreign currency in the commodity countries; Kiwi, Canada, Australia. If you can you also want to buy the Chinese Yuan. Once that bad boy uncouples it will go up 30% in a couple months. I feel it is 40% undervalued.

If you are close to a border go across and open up and account and change your USDs also get a safety deposit box and fill that bad boy up with silver.

Once USD breaks 81.50 range it is going to 74.

Crude will be 64 before November.

I have been saying the above since I joined this board. It has worked out so far for me. Some of my future contracts are up 600%. Pocket change for rolo...the all knowing one.

:shock:

100% G. Have been 100% G for about two weeks. Did a three smash and grabs to the I fund. Yanked by coins out and I am still 100% G. I have an account thread.

Hopefully I will get a penny today .

Then please post in it before your trades, per the board rules, Dr Monday Morning commentator.

Perhaps, also, you can start your own topics with HOWTOs on all this fancy-schmancy stuff.

Re: Missing the Boat

The boat sprung a leak. It will be difficult to say this without sounding like gloating, that's not what I'm doing. The point is these types of posts tend to come at market turning points. There were similar posts in August telling me I was nuts to be fully invested in that type of market. Remember the monkey throwing darts comment someone threw at me? I am certainly wrong a lot, but I can usually tell by the tone of the posts when the market is ready to make a move. The market is down3% since that post. That is nothing to a buy and hold investor but it is certainly a tradable move to a short term player.
