Markets looking good today, so I am standing pat. FOMC is Wednesday and if all goes well I can see us shooting up to the 2193 area. If we hit that, I'll then head for the sidelines.

Big boy pants deployed and ready to ride the wave.

Other than that, if I hear one more person say "At the end of the day", I'm going to run out into the middle of traffic! ;swear

Have a great day and good luck with your investments!

Good luck with your investments!!!

Well after a rough day in the markets today, it's good to just sit back, relax and watch a football game. Being a Ravens fan, I'll be rooting for the Dolphins to take it to the Bengals, but reality tells me they don't have a chance.

Oh well, the beer is cold and the buttered popcorn is hot...Time for the game!!!:nuts:

 

[ravensfan]

Okay, Dolphins are up, but man them are some ugly uniforms...Reminds me of when the Bucaneers came into the league...

[ravensfan]

Just executed my first IFT for October. 50% C Fund, 50% S Fund...:nuts:

So I put the IFT in near the 12:00 deadline, S&P 500 is down over 20 points. Yeah this is going to be a good dip buy...price closes 6.63 points down...I know what's happening at noon is never the same as market closing, but come on guys...really? Can't a fella catch a break just once.:notrust:

 

[ravensfan]

Gave some thought to an exit today, but decided to stick it out a little longer.

S&P is still in that 2120 to 2170 range. Until it drops below 2120 I'm ok.

Was looking at my weekly data for 2016 and both the C and S funds will likely finish the week down. That makes it down two weeks in a row. C and S funds have only been down three weeks in a row twice in 2016, so odds are favoring a third week down unlikely.

With that said, I expect strength and next week to be positive. Yes it will probably remain volatile, but hey I like volatility. With that, I remain 50% C fund, 50% S fund.

Good luck with your investment strategies and have a great weekend...

 

[swedishjake]

if it goes down, im coming along! 60c/40s
have a good weekend

 

[Cactus]

Hej på dig, swedishjake. Are you saying you are going to ride out this downturn if it continues next week?

 

[ravensfan]

Interesting article which provides a little hope for some positive gains for the coming week...Enjoy!!!

Interesting, most numbers are in the red and I've been out for at least a month now. That's good... right?

Yeah if you got out, that's very good!!! Wish I would have done the same near the end of September when this trade was still positive. Unfortunately, I always want a little more and end up staying in way to long. Hoping next week things turn around a little so I can join you.

Have a great weekend!!!

Raven out!

Today looks promising and perhaps a good day to get to safety. However, most of the talking heads I follow are optimistic for a good week. In addition market indicators are beginning to point up. That said, I'm still in but have my thumb on the eject button.
