Good Evening,

Our funds managed to hold the line today. It’s all about next weeks FED meeting though…

 

Losing week for stocks as investors wait on Fed

 

 

The week’s trading left us with the following signals: C-Neutral, S-Neutral, I-Sell, F-Sell. Our allocation is unchanged at 63/C, 37/S. It has earned +16.11% since 03/11/13. Here are the latest posted results:
12/12/13
Fund G Fund F Fund C Fund S Fund I Fund
Price 14.2702 15.7632 22.9146 32.0436 24.3102
$ Change 0.0009 -0.0216 -0.0805 0.0616 -0.3046

  L INC L 2020 L 2030 L 2040 L 2050
Price 16.6532 21.2734 22.7534 23.9793 13.518
$ Change -0.0169 -0.0605 -0.0791 -0.0927 -0.0605
% Change day -0.10% -0.28% -0.35% -0.39% -0.45%
% Change week -0.28% -0.79% -1.02% -1.18% -1.33%
% Change month -0.40% -1.17% -1.50% -1.73% -1.98%
% Change year +5.93% +13.25% +16.54% +18.99% +21.30%

As you can see the S Fund is holding up the best of any of our thrift funds. It has actually had a positive return during the past two sessions.
Nothing has changed. If we can avoid a sell signal for C or S funds or both, we will stay in the market until the FED announcement on Wednesday. It not, we’ll lock in our profits and call it a year. It is still my belief that they will not taper. We’ll see how the market and the charts react. May God guide our hand!  Have a nice weekend.
God bless,
