What's wrong MM???:?

Please don't try to takethe IRAconversation too personal. Personally, I like MT and believe that we both can get past our differences.

I guess I just like to keep the peace for the benefit of the entire board.

God Bless

Oh yeah.. tension will be high, solet's all ride this one out together.:^

Guess i have a few comments on that Rod:

1. We may all have personal differences, but that you can take out Roth contributions penality free at anytimeultimately isnt subject to debate/differences. It'd be like debating thelaw of gravity. My opinion is MT owes us an acknowledgement that he was wrong in that thread given his yelling and name calling. I even get MT enough analytical credit that by now, he realizes that he was wrong.

2. Although MM might be going a little harsh with that statement, i think even you have to realize its possible he made the trade, but for different reasons than he's stating now; changing the reason on the fly since the hurricane's about to hit. Frankly, my caution flag went up too even prior to MM's post due to both the unknown circumstances of last week, and due to his inability to admit when he was wrong.

I respect that.

Milk,

I e-mailed Tom over the week what I was doing. Because no matter what I do on this board you chatise me about it.

All lot of good shorts setting up. I wish one was your time left being on this board :^. MT

Right on brother! Let's take a vote, who would rather I leave or you leave? I'm pretty much tired of your BS "chicken little" and am willing to leave. Are you? If no vote is taken,, I'll just leave and make money for friends and family.

Good luck all,

M_M

Milk,

Being out of the market last week is still bothering you, huh?:*

Missed opportunites do sting.

Look at is as a learning experience four years from now. There is a bounce after the incumbents convention.

See, I am slowly learning you. Now like I said prior to the end of the FY year there is a purge of dog stocks so they do not reflect on their holdings.

Does anyone remember me saying this stuff. Watch out when the big guys come in and start selling?

I e-mailed Tom over the weekend to get out of the market early this week. He said he was going to stick it out and I said I was bailing. I also said that the Monday prior to triple witching is a up day.

Good luck and have a great day!

You're not learning anything except what you feel fits your needs. Everyone knows I was out last because of my system. Yes I have a system and I stick to it. It has worked all year and I have come up with an even better one.

I've made a grand total of 5 transactions this year and am up 16.81%. You on the other hand, well who knows? I did not think of the hurricane-TSP issue because I wasn't actively maintaining my account at that time.

This site was a very nice and amicable site before you came along, I really wish you would go back in the hole you came from. I have invited friends to view this site and listen and learn. Your bitching and complaining is not what I wanted them to listen to.

The board is yours, breast wishes...............

A,

I agree.

It is nice to have a nice spicy debate once and awhile thou.

I am bored with the market right now but some great shorts are setting up so I may be leaving this board. I really do not have that much in my TSP to manage.

Milk - I love you man!!!

For those I like on this board I would love to be able to e-mail thoughts back and forth to you.

Tom is a great guy and has a great board. Hopefully the info I sent him over the weekend he can put into his thought process.

This is a great board.

Not to pat myself on the back but I believe what I have been saying has played out? Maybe I do not need meds but for not being able to predict the future I feel that I do fairly well. If you do not want my thoughts on what is upcoming then I will leave this board. Because when I was a rookie investor I liked to hear opinions and see who had a good percentage of being right. I think Milk being out of the market during maybe one of the last good weeks of the year has made him imbalanced, moving forward.

Milk,

Do not leave. I apologize. You are the man. If you are happy with your system then that is all that matters.

I will not dump on you anymore, even if you start it first .

Milk,

It is good to have a system but you have to think of seasonal/special issues that pop up once in awhile. Like the S&P 500 rebalance that I missed.

One of my first questions were; WHEN DO YOU THINK THE FY SELL OFF WILL START THIS YEAR??? How big will the RNC bounce be???

Boy, I can't imagine it if the office would be closed for longer than a week!

I bet you folks who are invested would go CrAzY!!!:end:

 

 

Trapped like a rat on a sinking ship.  We have a very heavy volume day today.  Hmm, wonder if the market will be up or down today ?   Let the dominos fall.

MT

This is how I felt before TSP investors were empowered to move from fund-to-fund on a daily basis. Not that I want to be a day trader, but I also don't want to be on a sinking ship.

Rod, I join my thoughts and prayers with the other members of this board for you and your families well-being.

Thank you. My Wife & I are in the UK, but we do have family in MS.

I believe the office will open sooner than we think since New Orleans is not bearing the brunt of Ivan.

We will be able to allocate soon enough.:^

New Orleans will not take a direct hit - but it will be subjected to severe flooding.

There are already warnings that the pump system will be unable to keep all that water out.
