Good Evening,

Today brought gains in the same trading range which is (do you have it memorized now) 1860 to 1890 for the S&P 500. Not to sound like a broken record, but nothing will be truly gained or lost until that trading range is broken. As I stated yesterday, I’m calling myself a bear and I’m expecting to see more downside in May. The market will never make any meaningful progress until we have a real correction. On to today’s action….

 

Buy, buy Tuesday! The market win streak continues

 

 

The day’s action left us with the following signals: C-Buy, S-Sell, I-Buy, F-Buy. We are currently invested at 08/G, 92/F. Our allocation is currently -3.87% on the year not including today’s results. Here are the latest posted results:

Same ole, same ole, we’re in the same trading range. There’s been a lot of movement both up and down, but as we approach the end of the month the Dow and S&P are barely changed. That is what I am talking about.

For the record, I do not agree with the trend lines that are drawn above. Either way, you can take their zone or mine. The bottom line is that we are in a zone…… I will continue to monitor the charts, but I do not expect to make any moves until resistance is broken one way or the other. That’s all for tonight. God bless and have a great evening!                                                                                                                                                                 Scott 8-)

    Good Day, It’s time to adjust our mix. The new mix is 100/G Please remember that this is the percentage of money that we have invested in each fund, not the money that is taken from your check and deposited into thrift. Those future contributions should always be 100% G Fund. That automatically protects your deposit in the event that it is…

    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…
