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/C. 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…

    Good Morning, It seems that it’s an odd thing to say, but we exit the month of October as a successful month which is not always the case as it is historically one of the worst months for the market. So now we enter the month of November which is historically one of the best…

    Good Morning, Wow! What a week. What a week. What a week!! It’s setting up to be the perfect storm! Let me explain. It all started with Fridays CPI report which came in softer than expected. The consumer price index showed a 0.3% increase on the month, putting the annual inflation rate at 3%.
