Good Evening, It was inevitable that we would have a day of good selling after such a strong run. Nonetheless, if I were a betting man I’d certainly have no problem betting that we’ll get out of this month with a profit. The excuse for today’s selling was a report that Apple is reducing production of the new I phone X. Whatever, I’m more concerned with the what than the why. The what is the price and that was down today. To me, the fact that Apple contributed to it going down doesn’t change the fact that it did. That said, I’m still tickled to death with the month we’ve had and I praise God for it!

The days trading left us with the following results: Our TSP allotment dropped -0.67%. For comparison, the Dow lost -0.67% the Nasdaq -0.52%, and the S&P 500 -0.67%.

 

The days action left us with the following signals: C-Buy, S-Buy, I-Buy, F-Sell. We are currently invested at 100/C. Our allocation is now +6.48% on the year not including the days results. Here are the latest posted results:
