The I fund had a nice day yesterday but it is still down significantly more on the month than our other equity based funds. I have included the chart of the S-Fund tonight as it secured a buy signal with a positive crossover of the PMO.
You know, for the past three years we have not known when this bull market might end due to the massive amount of liquidity being pumped into the system by the FOMC. And guess what? We still don’t know. All we can do is what we have been doing and that is to stick with the prevailing trend. To fight the trend is a recipe for losses or under-performance. As I have said many times, someday this will come to an end and we will have to play defense, but for now we must rack up as many gains as we can. That’s all for tonight. God bless you all and have a great weekend. Hope you are done with your shopping!

PS- Our gift this Christmas Season is that we have a new Grandson on the way! Isn’t God great!!
