Futures down slightly this morning. Overseas markets are a mixed bag but most losing alittle. The dollar was up some.

If this was 2010 and some of this actually came to fruition I would vote for him. Alot of people have put in way more effort but with no results comes no prize. Lost some respect for its meaning today.

Pick your poison. Your investments are suppose to help you acquire wealth for your golden years. Should we pull all our money out and assist the market crash?

Have a great day everybody

 

[WorkFE]

Wow. I expected today to be flat going into the 3 day weekend.
Next week could be very interesting. 20% of the DOW components report earnings during the 4 day week.

Dow 10000 and S&P 1100 are achieveable. I believe we will get there.

 

[WorkFE]

Todays close should not be surprising. We had a nice run up this morning but volume was light. Alot of investors are positioning for the remainder of the week. Lots of reports starting tomorrow.
This should prove to be a interesting week. Should we start off well tomorrow I may pull some (Cha Ching) into the garage for a possible pull back down the road.
Watch out if we bust 22 on the VIX. It will be like doing the 1/4 in a top fuel.

GL every body.

J $ J reported. They beat by a little.

Bid & Ask Pre Market lower than last yesterday's price.

 

[WorkFE]

Could be a very slow day.

 

[WorkFE]

VIX is retreating. We are currently in damage control.

 

[WorkFE]

Did the bull shake a few non believers today or are we stalled or headed for a pull back.

Good news should push us in a positive direction:

I want more exuberance. Don't hold back. Get me in at any price momentum. C'mon lily padders, come get some - the time is right.

it's pretty obvious that wall st & media talked a good many out of the market and then loaded the boat at 1019 in the s&P to get some good buys and accumulation before earnings season. the doom and gloomers on this board can't wrap themselves around buying the dips during a bull market. They'd rather waste their energy on calling people lucky or saying this market is irrational. I've also ignored the minute-by-minute TA posts, since that's not doing anybody a service with 2 IFTs a month... except scaring TSP'ers off a mid-term/long-term position.

 

[WorkFE]

Break on through to the other side. Move over 10,000 we would like to pass.


I may need this.

 

[WorkFE]

Banking giant Goldman Sachs is set to report earnings on Thursday and from what I hear it is going to be big. We shall see.

The VIX has come back some this afternoon. IMO it is signalling to relax and take a breath. Slow and easy.

Be ready to jump from the I fund, I don't think this will last much longer.

There has been a Squalebear sighting

 

[WorkFE]

That's just wrong. How do you take a hard working individuals boat like that without asking.

When the VIX dropped to 21.92 earlier that was a clue the herd was getting restless.

Good luck with that. Let's flush another dollar down the toilet.

 

[WorkFE]

Now there is something you don't see everyday. I Fund=NA. I sure hope that does not mean no advance

 

[KevinD]

I saw that too...
