Steadygain's Account Talk

[Corepuncher]

Steady,
I've been meaning to stop by and compliment you on the new Avatar. Bright spot on an otherwise drab market

I'm surprised someone hasn't made their avatar Avatar...lol.

 

[Steadygain]

Look at I Fund .... :nuts:


....it looks like a snake lifting its head ... that's pretty cool :laugh:

Oh shoot -- nevermind -- SOB


Well lunch break's over

Federal Government
recognizes Diversification
​

The Federation Government has officially recognized the need to Honor Possums and Skunks and are thereby granting them a 3 day Weekend. Monday -- Paid Holiday​

If you are a POSSUM or you are a SKUNK ​

YOU GET A 3 DAY WEEKEND !!!!!​

You know who you are and what you are ​

My congratulations to all !! ​

 

[nnuut]

I DON'T!! Every day's a HOLIDAY!! Have a GREAT LONG WEEKEND!:laugh:

 

[Steadygain]

Thanks Norm !!

I hope you're enjoying retirement and things are well.


I rather enjoy the idea of all 'working' Federal Employees having to acknowledge who they really are and why they're getting off.

I'll be telling anyone who asks -- and my family at a minimum -- that I don't have to work Monday -- cause I'm a Possum

350z is equally excited for being a Skunk

Ahh but alas -- you and Birch no longer have to be one of the rascals or critters you use to be. If I was to guess, however ...

You were a Possum and Birch was a Skunk :cheesy:

 

[Birchtree]

My mother when she was a young girl had a pet skunk. It was a great pet and never sprayed anyone - can you imagine such a thing. I'd like to have a pet Bobcat. I have a feeling that in retirement I'll be working harder than I ever have and certainly have the potential to make serious money. The equity markets are going to be a blessing going forward.

 

[Buster]

All I can say..a couple more days like these past two and I'll back to my break even point...

In the words of the Master...SNORT!

I've only got a minute but noticed Grandma's Post to Tom about reaching 5,000 through this site.

It may actually be way more than that considering that 'Visitors' often far outnumber the 'Members'

On that note I extend the BEST Valentine's Day Expression to Lady, Grandma, Alevie, Silverbird, Malyla, Joy Lynn, and the many other women that honestly add immense Value and Quality to this site.

I would equally say that the men who keep this place alive are also top quality -- and it's probably more that 'Family' and the genuine respect we have for one another and the ease of expressing ourselves and being real --

-- that makes this place so popular.

Then it may in part be the Transitions -- of Birch going more and more to the Lilly Pad ... and me becoming the ultimate B&Her

Well -- THANK YOU EVERYONE --

And Ladies -- just this once --- and I mean it -- don't be askin' me to do this again .... but .... here it goes

XXOOXOXOXOO

BULLISH TREND -- in a Bearish Environment

Folks -- please don't be bothered with me for raking in a few more thousand -- simply at the convience of remaining 100% in High Risk.


I've simply found over the years --- there is no faster way of making money with the money I have.


YES !! The Majority are going to give a million reasons why the Markets 'can not' go up --- and why they 'can not hold' -- and why they will fall.

Please remember that these comments were NEVER more widespread and made known over and over than in 3/09 ...

So -- at this point if I bail to 'safety' -- to hold my gains --- I'll more than likely lose some bigger gains.

You all just can't imagine how great it is to make these comments because I've never had the B&H mindset to this degree before. And trust me --- if I had 'MISSED' gains like this -- whew would I have been a tag bothered

Soak the beauty in -- and flow with it

The NYSE common only A/D line made a new bull market high on 12/30/09. There is no sign of a top. The next 500 points to 10,725 should be lucrative. The next stop will be the 200 week MA at Dow 11,160. The typical bull market lasts three to five years so any correction is for buying. If we have the first leg of a new secular bull market any top capitulation is a long way into the future.

Birch,
My ever strong and persistent brother -- this is where I would have to disagree with you; and in fact it is mainly and wholly for this reason that I am IN -- to stay the course.

The actual SIGN of a TOP -- began to emerge in 3/09.

Now some may actually 'Believe' we are still in a BEAR Market and whatever happened from 3/09 until today was just a Fluke. There is little hope of them getting ahead in the years to come if they hold to this belief. For those who honestly realize the Markets are slowly, but surely, making their way back up -- there is much to be gained.

Now - as to the Sign of the TOP -- that my friend would mostly be identified with the LAST REAL TOP -- and there is much ground to cover before we get there.

Eventually things will settle down and the Markets will take 'solid traction' and a huge upward momentum will go on for several years. Many will lose out on the some Huge Gains -- by holding back -- just as many lost out from 3/09 - 12/09.

Birch - this is not the time to give in to fear -- take your anxiety medication -- see your counselors and therapists -- and let Gretchen and Heidi relax you a little bit more --

-- but STAY IN - TO WIN

To men only --- look at the money I'm making and it's not exhausting -- it's exhilerating -- like taking candy from a baby.

A Time of Understanding​

Today has been swamped -- with people coming in one after the other throughout the day -- quite a few requiring admission ....​

.... so when I came here ... it was just for a moment​

Anyway -- despite the hectic pace -- today started off really great and sometimes when something happens to set a 'beautiful tone' it just goes up from there... so that happened today and the Markets here were just an extra boost. ​

I changed the OIL in my garage yesterday -- despite it snowing and went inside here and there to warm my red -- numb hands. The car turned over 200,000 on the way to work today and last week I was still getting just over 32 MPG. ​

So -- I'm not trying to get on anyone's nerves and you can lose just as fast as you win --- but winning ALWAYS feels good and when I've only got 10 seconds .... ​

I may go a little too far but am just having fun.​

Well have a great night everyone !!! ​

Oh and welcome SB (tweet tweet) -- good to have ya back. I think my folks said you all are expecting more snow .... that's got to be frustrating ... I mean everything in 'MODERATION' .. ​

Well later all ​

 

[Steadygain]

SteadyGain,

Well said. I agree with you. So do some long term experts like Bob Brinker. In his last few monthly reports he's stated that we are likely in a longer term bull run.

I do have some concerns that the next few months could look like early 2004...going sideways or slightly downward before the next big upswing...but today was nice validation for those who have been in stocks since mid January and did not panic.

Wow -- THANK YOU !!! My friend

On that note -- I really will take off

Nothing like starting ..... and ending the day... on wonderful tones...

 

[Steadygain]

OK - kids -- I've only got time for one short story.

The guy they hired to help with the work load is 'off' this week and so I have a lot to complete and today's stuff is just starting. But I'm not complaining because I live 'one day at a time' and I'm grateful for my job and everything the Good Lord allows me to accomplish.

Today's story is about our Market Conditions. You see kids for those who try to out smart the Markets ... it's a scarey adventure that keeps you on the edge of your seat ... stomach is constantly churning and you're bracing for the worst. They are totally convinced the Markets are going UP - for one reason only -- to see who they can fool. So they always see the Markets going up -- 'as a Trap' -- and they'll jump out -- rather than risk 'Going over the Cliff'.

But there are some that simply don't believe the Markets behave that way... that they are not driven with a mindset to 'fool' who they can but they simply move as they will -- and deep down there is nothing we can do or say to keep them from doing their thing.

Think of the Markets as a long standing entity -- based on Companies and Industries that have been in place for many years. Know that after every VERY SUBSTANTIAL RECESSION -- where the Air almost leaves completely --- where we have 'Contraction' -- that WILL follow with the air coming back in and 'Expansion'.

It may be SLOW .... in the beginning ---- but once set in motion things will continue ....

.... so have Faith my dear ones....

gotta run ---- Bridgewaterbetty is now in charge

 

[Handballer]

Gost Steady, I should of read your post before I moved 96% into the G fund. To late now.

 

[Birchtree]

Traffic has been cleared on the tracker after today - that leaves ample room for the hoofhearted to charge forward. Stocks are about to explode higher.

Wow !! That's pretty cool --- my 2 closest brothers

One because he spent the better part of his life in Service and the other because what part he did give was huge and essentially lifelong because of the extent he gave it.

Handballer -- my post was from a clear practical mind that is able to look beyond the doom and gloom and the typical mindset by which the players are wired.

But please know that I have been a Player for many years and after gaining about 4% in last week or so -- in the end I was overwhelmingly convinced it was better to keep what I got -- and make another move forward later on. So my actions did not follow my words -- I went to G Today.

Birch,
I'm honestly getting there -- but to permanently have a B&H mindset will take a little time. I can say in all sincereity that making GAINS has never been so easy -- and simply resigning to the Markets took out all 'anxiety' no matter what happened.

But going from like -6.5% to wherever I am -- especially when you've got 10 Market Geniuses and Financial Wizzards all saying over and over about 'How the Rahm is Hitting the Fan' :worried:

So I can only laugh :laugh: at them for so long --- don't want them to laugh back ... so maybe next time I'll stay a little longer until one day -- it's over and I just keep staying.

But Joy Lynn and others are counting on me to be IN when the GAINS are being offered and to be in Safety when they are being taken away.

Don't be mad Birch -- cause I'm just your kid brother

another move forward later on. So my actions did not follow my words -- I went to G Today.

No idea how it goofed up -- but I always put my IFT in the Tracker even before I go to the Site to make it happen.

To NOT use the IFT is like the most Pansy Ass thing you could do (guy or gal) - so I'm very particular about doing it. Rahm man, that kind of burns me -- cause I logged in and even typed a message about a half hour prior to the cut off.

Was too busy to make sure it went though --- but pushed the update before I clicked off the site... hummm ... you might have to wait a second or two after you push update.
