My vote is: they are bad for the country, but good for individuals not having the money for purchasing.

Probably not what you are looking for.

As much as that goes against the "Friends don't let friends buy and hold" mentality- You have acquired more and more shares and have not lost a penny by not selling - SMART MOVE!

Thanks - but a poll would not allow comments - and not let our vote sway one another.

So we'll simply say: BAD :embarrest:

Am really busy today - GL everyone - and have a great weekend.

Back in 2001, a friend of mine said me, "If you see an 18 wheeler coming at you, why not get out of the way?"

I was just a kid at the time and didn't know anything about the market. I replied to him, "Why, the market will always go up."

I lost a bunch in 2001-2002.

Enjoy your weekend.

Thanks my friend
You did very well putting half in F Fund. I still think what we're seeing now is the beginning of THE REAL THING and I'm thrilled it finally arrived. Much of the past decline was simply caution and reactions to one thing or another. THIS HOWEVER is likely seeing the TRUTH and responding accordingly. The smart money has more of a clue of what's really happening - and the rest of us follow.

I honestly hope we keep diving and not have another week of this BS where "we all think" OK the worst is over. But F Fund should dive too - every FUND except for G - will likely fall big time in the near future. I greet all this with open arms - because (as noted yesterday) I am convinced we are now approaching the REAL BOTTOM and I plan to go in fully and likely leave it the rest of the year. It's only March - and I wouldn't doubt this goes on until June or July.

Anyway, in the long run my gains have far outweighed my losses and I am confident I'll end the year well. It will be tough for me to end in the TOP 10 - as many others are ready to stay in High Risk once we hit the bottom. On second thought - HEY EVERYBODY - go to G FUND for the remainder of 2008 - now if everyone listens to me I'll be in the Top 10.

Well be cool everyone and think of Jimi occasionally cause he was the coolest dude ever.

Things are looking good - as we appear to be heading for a real bottom.


Tony Blair gave a talk at a near by college and was excellent. It's just amazing how England (Europe) and China see the United States from of an ECONOMIC point of view. He described how "We" view ourselves - "our nation" - "our position" -"our power and strength" and it was 100% accurate. Then he went on to say how they view "Us" and why the dynamics are changing.

I typically hate political discussions - because in general I think our overall system has been screwed up for so many years it's all a bunch of BS. Yet now I am thrilled this is an ELECTION YEAR - because never have we needed change more desperately than we need it now. In many ways WE ARE VERY STRONG AND MORE THAN CAPABLE OF TURNING THINGS AROUND. But we as a nation need to see the "REAL WAR" is the system that gets everyone fater and lazier - more and more comfortable with debt - and less and less in high quality education. Again I hope what we are seeing now is the reality of a neccessary bottom and we don't go through the repeat bizarre upswings that make understanding our real conditions more difficult to understand. IF THIS IS IN FACT WHAT WE CONTINUE TO ENCOUNTER - IN THE END WE WILL BE A WHOLE LOT STRONGER.

We knew the rebound was comming. Was wanting a repeat of yesterday - and would have gone 100% High Risk for 1 or 2 days - had that happended. Oh well - now will have to put up with all the "GREAT NEWS" on how our economy is booming for another day or two and look for another good entry point later on.

The start is VERY STRONG - all Markets - so it should end well; but it's highly possible that "profit takers" will seize the day and things will end lower than expexted. The only way to know for sure is asking 12%

 

[Steadygain]

I think this rally should extend a few more days.

1) Very strong start - and maintaining

2) EXPECT a "SURPRIZE CUT" from the FED tomorrow

3) The combination of 1 & 2 will send things higher - in addition to the Media bombarding us with "good news".

Will split 30% C; 30% S; 40% I at COB today

 

[Steadygain]

Changed my mind - 100% F at COB

 

[Steadygain]

100% G today - will play it day by day

 

[Steadygain]

Fast prediction 12% style:

Volatility will dominate the MARKETS:

What is RED today will be GREEN tomorrow (and vice versa)

BUY RED - SELL GREEN

or move to G Fund

Uptrend has a lot of EXCELLENT POINTS - substantiating the future BULL MARKET

I can't help but believe a huge loss is yet to come:
1) Dollar hitting record lows
2) The worst news is yet to come - and it will sound terrible
3) Oil is likely to go way up - (the world at large is not concerned when we're uncomfortable/stressed/hitting hard times)
4) Reports of US Weakness from other countries will increase
5) The endless "bail outs" - which have plunged the dollar lower and lower are finally ending. Without the band-aid remedies the pain is going to honestly get real - causing some big sell offs.
6) Key sectors will get weaker before they get stronger

In the end there is plenty of room for another 5% Loss

Then I see Uptrend's forecast taking place and honestly believe the very best move is to put everything in HIGH RISK and let it go.

Bottomline: I see our present circumstances as the tremors before the big quake - the REAL BOTTOM is probably at least 5% further down - yet I am convinced the next major bottom will be the last.

So BRIGHTER TIMES :nuts: ARE IN STORE
WE JUST NEED TO WAIT IT OUT​

Honestly - I think the Markets are getting easier to predict. The quote above is at one week prior.
​

EVERYTHING - POINTING TO THAT ​

1) The dollar will go lower
2) You have not heard the worst news yet (hadn't hit the media)
3)Where is Oil going?? Are prices going up??
4)US Economy getting stronger? - Is that how the world sees it?
5) WHAT another "BAIL OUT" - 200 Billion - is there no end??
6) Are the key sectors getting stronger yet??

Folks this is one time I will side with Birth and say this is not the time to get Gloomy - We are heading into the slide we need to hit the BULLPEN - Once we hit that he will bounce and shake hard - then he'll take off.

As long as we have the G Fund there is no room to complain; and the ones in that Fund can sit back and enjoy the show. Yesterday I took in over half of F Fund's yearly gain and now I can't possibly lose.

​

 

[Steadygain]

There is something to be said about watching the Markets too closely.


Right now I believe that is the worst mistake any of us could make. At the moment it looks like we are in the "Bull pen" - that he made his first big jump; fell back to the ground - lowered his head to the ground as the day started - and is heading back up. So at the moment THINGS LOOK GOOD.

For me - the best thing to do at this time is walk away - stop looking and come back next week. So I love you guys - have a really great weekend - and I'll see ya next week.

Well that was easy enough.

Tomorrow.....No clue.

 

[Steadygain]

WOW!!! What a beautiful day :toung:


Have been too busy to check on things until now

I see this as a BUYING OPPORTUNITY and can only hope for a much steeper drop towards the end of the day. IF THAT HAPPENS - Expect at least a brief bounce next week.


Our recent 4% DAY GAIN - is a clue to getting ahead. But I would highly recommend a quick dive in and get back out.

A wonderful weekend to everyone - am going back in High Risk all the way.

 

[Steadygain]

Based on the current WEAKNESS - went 30% C/30% S/40% I

The bigger they fall - the higher they bounce (at least temporarily)

see previous post

Good strategy - now, if we only had a "clue" as to when the Fed is going to pull another rabbit of the hat, this strategy would make us rich (although not in Euros or any other currency). It seems that the only thing repeatedly saving the market from tanking is the Fed. They need to let it tank so a bottoming process can begin.

Welcome to the "intelligent mindset"

Here the recent past 6 months gives a BIG CLUE as to what to expect. What has the FED been doing to 1)Avoid a Recession and 2)Stablize the Economy - BAIL OUTS and CUTS.

A Cut next week will bring a knee jerk 3%+ Gain and I am back in G.
