mlk_man's account talk

Looks like an up day. You played it correctly. Now I've got to decide if I'm getting back in today or Monday. I'm still expecting a lot of chop yet to come.

Days not over yet though and you probably just jinxed me...........

If looks like a pretty decent day today, I may jump out for a day. I was hoping to go into the I fund today but the overseas markets were all up nicely and the dollar was down so I'll probably wait.

We'll see.

Now I've got to decide if I'm getting back in today or Monday.

BTW, as they say on "The Millionaire" how about a 50-50?

 

[mlk_man]

Well I'm hoping the S fund can stay up and that the G will wait until Monday to pay out. I wanted to put some in the F fund if it was down today but it can't seem to figure out what it wants to do so I'm going 100% G.

Happy returns,

Fun with numbers.

When the L funds started on Aug 1, 2005, the L2040 was .39 higher than the L2030 and 1.33 higher than the L2010.

It got as high as .64 and 2.14 accordingly on May 9, 2006.

As of yesterday, the differences were .48 and 1.56.

You know we're in deep kimchi if the L funds ever invert. I wonder if there might be a way to use this as a long term investment indicator?

Hmmmmmmm

Pilgrim, I'll answer your question here. I went back 100% stocks because I got a signal to jump back in. My sell signal was on June 2nd but I was on vacation and couldn't transfer out.

May not last long. I'll know more on Wed.

Happy returns,

Thriftline works every time from anywhere.

 

[mlk_man]

Oh thanks, didn't realize the still made phones. Guess it'd work if I had the phone number........

 

[sugarandspice]

Sorry Sugar. I had to delete this. And sorry to you mlk. No one should have to have their section contaminated with Sugar's poisen. I missed the first one. I'll see that she doesn't stray.

From what I've seen, techy hasn't posted today. Could mean we're at a bottom.

But then again...........him and FT could just be off "frolicking"......:nuts:

 

[mlk_man]

Did I spell that right? Looks a little weird.............

 

[mlk_man]

Core PPI higher than expected.............:nuts:

 

[mlk_man]

Looks like we'll have to wait till tomorrow to see which way the market heads next. I personally hope the core CPI is good so I can make some money with my TSP funds. I know of at least two people on this site that hope it's bad so they can keep saying "I told ya so". Pretty sad actually.

We sure could use some more investment options. If I could buy call options on whether a certain poster here is going to be a jerk or not, I'd be rich!!!

If we can manage to stay up today, I thought about going into the I fund. However, we may see a fair valuation day because foreign markets took a drubbing. On the other hand, it corrected down yesterday about .8%. Decisions decisions..................

 

[mlk_man]

I just realized that the L funds inverted after yesterday's close...........:blink:

Actually, I should say their returns for the year inverted, not their share prices.........sorry.

Core CPI higher than expected...................

 

[mlk_man]

Had to change my signature.............:blink:

 

[mlk_man]

Shaping up to be a good day even with the much higher than expected NY Empire Index. This consider inflationary and probablly just a matter of time before the market realizes it. Probably tomorrow. If the market holds, you might wanna think about jumping out and back in tomorrow. This is my plan.

I think we may get the penny tomorrow but I also think we might get a bounce in the F fund tomorrow. I'll probably go 50% G 50% F. But I might go 100% F for a day.

I should get a buy signal for stocks after close today, I'll try to punch in the right numbers this time , so I'll be back in stocks Friday. Don't know for how long.............

Happy returns,
