Steadygain's Account Talk

[Birchtree]

There is a chance that we are in a 1995 move and that means there is a possibility there will be a build up to say 1,700 on the SPX in 2011 as the market gets back to the fundamentals. As Jessie Livermore would say; "It was never my thinking that made the big money for me. It was always my sitting, got that. My sitting tight."

 

[Steadygain]

This is the time to step back and look at the overall picture.

Look at how the pieces are falling in place and focus only on that. The 'Recovery' may be different from many in the past -- mainly in that one bubble did not led to another.

This time were building more from the ground up -- BUT -- the Light is shining and we are at the end of the tunnel.

I expect things to continue pretty well --- SLOW AT FIRST -- but that's cool. Irregardless -- Growth means GAINS.

 

[Birchtree]

I will absolutely crap nickles if this market rallies 166 points today taking back Friday. How much money can we make with chicken manure. We could squeeze the scat right out of the bears today.

 

[Steadygain]

Kids, we talk about the MARKETS soaring up like a 'ROCKET'...

...so a lot of you may think .... wow ... it's going to run out of steam.



Think of the MARKETS more in terms of MOUNTAINS that are forming. They build from a base and just keep pushing HIGHER and HIGHER....

...THEY DON'T RUN OUT OF STEAM....

...They are like a plant that is growing. We have waited for the roots to Spring from the seed ...

So what you're seeing NOW -- is just the beginning.

Once the rocket over comes the initial inertia of gravity it requires less to keep moving hiugher. It's all just physics of money flow.

To recap the MARKETS ACTIVITY today!!


It's like the Flags were being raised up the flagpole.

The Flags (C,S,I) are going up nice and easy.....


then either the pulley messes up or the rope gets jammed and we're having to move it up and down a little trying to free it.....

Finally towards the end of the day --- we got it and the Flags go flying to the TOP!!!


In summary 'High Risk Investments' = 'Maximum Possible Gains'

I'm just going to go about my business accumulating more and more wall flowers - getting further in debt and pyramiding my gains while interest rates are low. I have my sacrificial lamb chop account just in case the market turns around and bites me. Capital appreciation is the game until it stops and that may be years from now.

I thought about Sweetcakes today Birch. She's got like 50,000 shares or more in the S&P. So you ought to give her a little playful swat on the bottom when she gets home -- follow that with a little hug - hold her and tell her account continues to fly past the clouds.

If the MARKETS turn to bite you -- gosh -- it's just a day thing but nothing more than that. I went fully in 12/1 - Birch the long play is very good and I'm thrilled to pieces.

Capital appreciation usually means G Fund or pardon my French (the F Fund). But from PermaBull #1 - yesterday - today - and forever .... I know what you mean..

That's how I see it --- the pot gets bigger and bigger... and I might need to ask a few on the Lillypad to help me carry it.

Capital preservation means no risk - capital appreciation means releverage it up and let it run. In the last quarter my wife made $49K in her defined contribution plan - not bad. But we want another $100K for the year if possible. She remains 100% SPX index. The State of Florida might start requiring their employees to put in 5% of salary - we like the idea to acquire more shares.

I truly hope it all works out well for everyone in the end; however when I hear about all this euphoria....I wonder....when it will come crashing down. It may only be memories of the past...........I hope not so for all our sakes.

Mick504, Thanks so much for dropping by. This is the first I remember meeting you so let me elaborate the depth of what I'm talking about.

It is not 'euphoria' Birch and I are talking about. What we're referring to is the realization that every 'Crash' - or major 'Bear Market' has always been able to stand up over time -- RECOVER -- and Business Grows and the MARKETS grow.

We are by no means over the last RECESSION/DEPRESSION/BEAR which is probably the most significant throughout our life. BUT at least NOW we are finally building from the ground and the 'Real Signs' of a recovery are under way.

I expect 'Volitility' to continue over the next year - and with that the MARKETS may go down 5 to 10% to consolidate before the next surge to new Highs.

But the Fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Galatians 5: 22-23

For all our sakes there is something far beyond the MARKETS and this alone can prepare us for any 'crash' no matter how it comes. This alone keeps us from getting caught up in a 'euphoria' that vanishes like a vapor.

This Love is above all others and is the core of all we know. The joy is inexpressible - what His Spirit alone can provide. The peace is so deep and solid that nothing can stand against it. It makes us immovable and nothing can take that peace. From these kindness and goodness flow from our lives through His Spirit and in this we find a much deeper identity and the realization of who and what we really are. Our Faith deepens in every aspect of our life and with every relationship we have. We learn self-control on levels that only His Spirit could provide.

The hardest part of 'self-control' is what I'm just beginning to learn for the very first time. It's the realization that your beauty and worth is so far beyond what you ever thought posssible. It's learning to let go of your 'unworthyness' and find the Fullest and Most Wonderful LIFE - this Spirt intended all along. It's learning to allow yourself to be touched and know it's NOT going to disappear. It's knowing with the greatest certainty that THE REWARD is more priceless and wonderful than anyone could possibly dream or imagine -- and that it's everlasting - forever and ever.

For the Day to Day --- nothing terribly exciting today.


For the long haul --- it' very exciting -- MARKETS are totally holding and the signs of life are in every Fund we have.


When seriously seeing the Markets from an historical perspective there is simply no way possible you could see 'This Moment' as being The TOP.

The TOP is years from now. We're still struggling to gain total traction but Traction at this point in enevitable.


If I were in competition on the AT -- I'd advise staying in F or G. :nuts:

 

[Steadygain]

Having all your eggs in one basket -- BAD IDEA

S Fund will likely hold the most promise for now

But I Fund should not be underestimated


Somedays one may lag -- but the other makes up for it.



I'm still feeling great about this year. Not 'euphoric' but my confidence level in the general sense of the Economy has been more positive since 12/1.

Well I've got a lot to catch up on ......

 

[Steadygain]

Yeah, I saw the LINK from Tom -- Trader Fred's Signals :nuts:

So I've got to admit -- I got pretty excited because he's like a super genius. I mean he was like the brain works for creating some of NASA's most far reaching stuff. So he takes elements of what he did to revolutionize our reaches into Space and enormously shedding light on our Understanding -- of Space and the Universe at large - and ...

he uses this to create a Program for investing in the TSP.

Now I forget the details but he's got maybe 12 different pieces that measure and evaluate tons and tons of stuff.

At least that's how I remember it.

So I'm excited because it looks like Tom is sharing this --- and hearing Trader Fred say 'BUY' -- would be pretty cool.

Sooooo --- I click on the Link and basically it tells me don't even think about cheating .... and you're not getting anything for free.

Oh well -- I had my moment of excitement.

 

[Birchtree]

Don't worry - if I remember correctly none of the premiums have been exactly up to standard for the last two years.
