Good Evening,

Well, was it a dead cat bounce or the beginning of another V-Shaped bounce? Tomorrow’s trading will give us a much better gauge of the current health of the market…

The S Fund was the best among our funds today at +1.59%. Here’s the day’s chart for the C-Fund:
C Fund: The price was back above the 20 EMA today which is an improvement. However the chart remains Neutral as its PMO is still below its 20 EMA. Volume was average.
0331
The market remains as it has been. As the quarter comes to a close the major indices are trading at or slightly above the break-even mark. You’d never guess that after the quarters volatility. I’d love to say it’s going to get better, but I just don’t see it until we undergo a real correction. Until then, I just expect more of the same. Either way, I will seek the guidance of my heavenly Father when it comes to all my investment decisions. He has never let me down yet! Have a great evening,
God bless,
Scott 8-)

    Good Morning, All I can say about this market right now is that it’s fluid. While corporate earnings are a constant with over 70% of the reports beating estimates, the tariff situation is anything but. The Trump administration continues to discuss and enact Tariffs on foreign trade partners (and I use the term partner loosely).…

    Good Morning, Perhaps I’m getting old and don’t remember things clearly, but I just can’t remember a market with this many twists and turns. Even when it was volatile it wasn’t this volatile. I think of the 90’s and even the early 2000’s for that matter. Sure, we had the dot com bubble that burst…
