Pyriel,

I took my RandR in Malaysia down in Port Dixon back in 1968. Very quiet.

 

[Show-me]

Pyriel!!! Good to see ya! Hope the R&R was refreshing.

Hi Wheels, Ocean, Birchtree, Showme... Thanks good olds friends... I guess i got clobbered when I left my account in automatic while I did some tdys. Tsk, Tsk, Tsk... Its ok i guess. As long as I am getting 8% per year (which happens to be my investment projection) then I am in pretty good shape.
Depending on what happens on Monday, I will most likely be going in 100% I fund by Tuesday...
People, please don't follow me. I really don't know what i'm doing...;-)

I'm leaning that way also. Don't know if I will go all in or DCA in. With all of the Economic Data this week it's a crap shoot. You will either win big or lose big. One strategy I have pondering is to wait until the US market make a good run in the a.m. and try to ITF into the I fund to catch the follow up.

Your make'n your goal and 8% is a whole lot better than the market is willing to give up YTD.

Good luck and welcome back.

On a real estate note I have noticed in my area a very large number of lower price homes hit the market the last to week. Almost looks like they are flooding the market. Wife and I plan to start shopping for rentals next spring.

Pyriel,

I think 8% returns is achievable especially the last three months of the year the market tends to go up.

As for real estate, I see you are doing pretty well. I like all the information you provided in that thread. Meanwhile I am hanging in there with my 3 rental properties but I don't intend to add more than what I have now.

Pyriel,

Your only 3% from you goal I see. Hardly anything to be disappointed with considering you busy personal life and the fact you have been in buy and hold mode.

100i cob today, Monday... My baby woke up and I had to get him milk. I haven't done a transfer closed to 1200 hours deadline for awhile now. Sold the i fund for 20.05 and as of Friday it was 19.84. Lets see what happen. Have to go back to sleep now. Nighty....

 

[pyriel]

Hanging out in 100i for another day then off to 100s i go. Two more moves before the week is over then off to 100g fund i go.
Please don't follow me, I really don't know what i'm doing.

Oh come on P, neither do any of us! But thanks for posting. Curious how it turn out for ya. Sounds great.

100i before cob thursday. By tomorrow, i should be out of stox completely and will be watching for another reentry. Tom is usually right about his assessment with stox, the problem is when is it going to happen. cya..

 

[pyriel]

Taking my profit for the week by going 100g before cob Friday. The day before the 3 day weekend is usually an up day so we'll see.

I really like seeing Tom's seasonality. It works majority of the time especially when there is big holiday coming up. I was getting out of the i fund and take cover for the 3 day weekend but didn't. I was looking at 05, 04, 03 day after labor day and they seemed to survive after the holiday. I made a lot of move this week and I have to say that it was profitable but I can't keep this up. I will be going back to buy and hold soon again. Have a nice 3 day weekend.

Dang Ebb is unrelentless. Sold on 20.33 and as of yesterday I fund is down 20.09 and most likely will go down some more today. Good entry point but so is the S fund where it lost .29 yesterday. Just like what Showme said, its good to be in the sideline watching while the market takes a beating, but when do you go in?
I don't think the market will cooperate today and if they do come up tomorrow, it will take another day for the i fund to react. What to do, what to do?

[pyriel]

A 52 cents dropped plus another possible drop again today. Going 100i. Please don't follow me. Unlike my real estate thread, i'm purely speculating here...

Japan made a nice move today I might join ya mayday

If US stox do move up, then Monday would be a good day to be in the i fund since they tend to react to US stox the day after... Which is why I am jumping in on Friday... I'm jugging along to get to my 8% for the year then i'll be happy for meeting my goal. Anything extra is icing on my cake...

People as you can see, I have very low expectation so please don't follow me.

Going 100g before 1200 est wed. US stocks were up yesterday. Today, international seems to be doing pretty well so I will go to safety and try to catch that .01 cents at the G fund tomorrow.

This move is not set in stone. Will look at more data and see other people's moves to make final determination if I am going to make this happen or not.

For the sake of preserving your retirement fund, please don't follow me. I don't know what i'm doing.

 

[pyriel]

I've decided that sleep is more important than waiting for the market to open and watching everyone make their moves. So, 100g i mentioned earlier will stand. Good luck to all of you and be careful since this is an unforgiving month...

Hope to get that penny in the g fund. Will stay in f fund until i decide to get back in again. That i fund is frustrating the hell out of me.
