Good Evening,

The FED money is ending, QE is tapering, QE is ending. The economy is improving so QE is ending……whatever (note sarcasm). OK, get it over with, let the market drop and we’ll go to cash. So what? We’ve done it before and I’m sure we’ll do it again. Just move us out of market purgatory!! Please, I’ve had enough. I’m tired of getting whipsawed. If we are at the top then let’s drop!!

 

Market losing streak hits five days

 

 

The day’s action left us with the following signals: C-Neutral, S-Neutral, I-Sell, F-Sell. Our allocation is the same for now at 63/C, 37/S. However, the chart for the C-Fund ended the day on the line between neutral and sell. Should the C-Fund (S&P 500) turn down in the morning we will sell that fund and re-balance our allocation. Our allocation is up 17.24% since 03/11/13. Here are the latest posted results:

The market’s reaction to tomorrow’s job report is pivotal. If the reaction is negative we may be done for the year. We’ll just keep our eye’s on the charts and react to what’s put in front of us. Either way, God has given us another great year! Give him the praise!!!! May He continue to bless your trades. Have a nice evening.
God bless,
Scott

    Good Afternoon, This was a Fed Driven market. It was all about when the Fed would be reducing interest rates based on inflation and that’s still the case to a certain degree, but in all actuality everything is waiting on the outcome of the tariff situation.

I’ve had more than a few comments and questions mostly off the record. It’s going down we’re losing money….…
