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!

    Good Evening, Well we’re now post election. How many of you are glad that is all over? I certainly am. The market has been surging since last Tuesday. There are two things it likes.

    Good Morning, Well we’re one day out from the first Tuesday in November and unless you’ve been hiding under a rock somewhere you know what that means. Election day and not just any election day. We will elect a new president and determine who will control the senate. The winners of these highly contested elections…
