This sucks. Moved to a 25% I fund and 75% S fund. Went to I because it appears this will be next months best fund. Kept 75% in S because I am playing for a big bounce up if a deal, any deal is made.

I am with you, only I am 60-I and 40-S. We'll get a bounce, problem is how low will we go before the bounce? I am hoping for some good news from the meeting this afternoon to help push the markets up.
 
Waiting for the bounce here! I definitely thought that something would have happed with this cliff B.S. holding the markets back.
Hopefully this doesn't hurt us for Q1 next year!
 
Well the bounce did not come for years end. We have waited for the year end bounce. Waited for the Santa clause rally. Waited on the fiscal cliff rally. And for what. Today the 2 be of January looks to be a very good day, so far. But are we in for 1,2,3 days and waiting for the hammer to fall. I may stay in even though I think a major correction and profit taking is about to begin.

Anybody else want to run for the hills in a couple days?
 
I'm thinking we'll see at least 1475 on the S&P before any meaningful correction and I think there are enough people on the sidelines to buy dips along the way. Up up up.
 
Yep, sure am thinking about profit taking.... should I get out today, or in the next few days.

I have to side with birch here though.... gotta be in it to win it. I think i will keep my cards on the table. If i had unlimited IFT, i would sell today, just to see what happens tomorrow.
 
Roughly 130 members just moved. Dip buyers? There are 936 members so about 13.2% and maybe 1-2% of those went to safety. I don't know how many dip buying ops I can take before I run away with my ball
 
I think I would listen to Tom and birch on this one.
This may be the start of a new bull market and a lot of investors that did not jump in the prior to today maybe looking at buying the dips. If you jump out not only will you use your IFT's early in the month but also miss the rally.
 
Well, i figure we might have through friday for a pause and possible drop. So the question for me, if i believe this, is how far is that drop and is it worth an ift out to try and catch the knife later?
 
Crap. I got busy and was not concentrating. I had planned on jumping out today and come back next week. Missed the deadline so now i wait for my fate.
 
So far fate has not kicked me in the ass. Too much. Plan was going to be go f fund for a few days and then go 100% s or i fund. Now i cant decide which fund to go 100% to.
 
Last year at this time i think i had pulled out to g fund and had used up all ifts. Which had given me about a 3% gain for the month. But last year the s fund rolled forward for a gain of about 7.5% gain there were very few opportunities to get back in.

So what to do this january. Stay in, getbout hope for downtrend again?

It's a hard call, If we get bad 4th Quarter projections, and the dollar decides to go strong.....Bad News!
But we're bouncing against resistance lines and we could see the POP to push us through....Hope springs eternal!
 
Well, I moved to 50% G, 40% F and left 5% in both S and I funds today.

Too much headaches coming.

French fighting a war??? Oh come on now, who thinks the French can win without help?
