It will be interesting to see who stops posting after the big losses.......we always lose an ego or two after losses......usually valuable posters, who just couldn't handle the public spanking.....

For those of you near the bottom of the tally, Don’t give up! Last year, at the end of July my YTD was -1.48%. In the last 4 ½ months of 2006 I made over 12%. So there is hope, the market will see new highs later on this year.

Since retirement investing is a 60-70 year proposition, it's interesting to see who's doing well long term. Some individuals are having a tough time this year. However, over a 2-3 period they're looking good. You know who you are.:cheesy:

Hmm, interesting how all the L funds suddenly clustered...
(and, hey, there I am clawing my way over the L-income fund--does that mean I get to retire soon?)

Yeah, Show-me also made an incredible year end run as well. You don't have to be right all the time, just more often than you are wrong.

I just looked at Rokid's talley.

Dang- I shouldn't have looked. It was BBAAADDDD!

Hey, anyone- got a shoulders I can cry on?

(Took it on the chin the last three weeks- hit it exactly opposite of what really happened, and I'm now approaching ZERO for the year. I need to cry in a beer, please. )

When was the last time that so many of us dart throwing monkeys were beating all the funds?

[Gilligan]

Thank you EWGuy and Rokid for all your hard work.

This past weeks tally has 40 entrants (counting the sentiment survey) beating all the funds.

I see where the I fund is at slot #61. Since no one beat that fund last year, just wondering how many will beat it this year.

You should beat it by 1.73%. I noticed that you have been in it all year except for the first week of June.

 

[vol46]

Yep, the sell in may and stay away only worked a couple of weeks for me.
The I fund may finish in the red this year but, at least I'll be 1.73% ahead of it.
