12/30/13

Good Evening,

I had a little situation with my garage door this evening. I didn’t get in until 9:30 PM Central time so I will keep this somewhat short. That’s about all there is to talk about anyway. Today was another low volume holiday trading day. Although technically we still have a couple days left for the Santa Rally I think that most of the market players did so well so early in the Santa Rally that they are closing their books and calling it a year. For the most part, it seems that they are just satisfied to close near the highs of the year and not give anything up.

I know, I know… the I fund has been picking up the pace lately, but it is still a percent or so behind our other equity based funds on the month. We’ll give it a look if it keeps up at its current pace next month. It’s late and I’ve got to go. Let’s see what the last trading day of the year has to bring us. Have a nice evening. May God continue to bless your trades!
