Because everything is sinking, I made my transition to 100%

Regrettably, an index initiated a sell on Friday, necessitating a choice between remaining invested or exiting the market. Overall, the markets are holding steady, but we have a lot of October to go. We have an election grinding to an end; it is unlikely we see a crash, but anything is possible. 

Here are the final numbers for the month of September.

Monday is tweaking day if you have a move left and I will discuss that move in today’s blog. I will also show what we can expect for October based on the last 5 years’ returns.

Let me know what you guys think. There is a menu item on this blog that looks like this:

I updated the page to report buy/sell indicators that will update the current price every 15 minutes. will update the sell levels nightly.

Let me know if it helps. This way if at any time you wonder what the current sell level is on any four charts, it is instantly available.

As it appears at the close of Friday, the markets are on cruise control. Even the high-tech sector is back breaking the weekly downtrend line.

Let’s take a look at our four funds. Next week is the last full week of trading for September.

Yes but know it comes as a risk for tomorrow. The FED will make its announcement tomorrow on one of three things, no rate cut, .25%, or .50%. Two out of three of those moved with the news that I am reading could be negative and one is expected. .25% is what everyone is expecting. .50% makes the FED look that they are over reacting and will be looked at as a negative. No move will also be looked at as a negative because everyone is expecting a cut.

So, move today or move tomorrow is the question. Olddix has made this move today.

Markets look like they waiting for bad news or consolidating. I am going to do nothing with my TSP account today.

It has been a pretty crazy two weeks with price and volatility.

Those are not my words, but that sums up the last two weeks perfectly. These head fakes are really hard to trade, and you have two choices. You can either ride it out and hope that they do not worsen when they turn negative, or you can preserve your capital and fight another day.

So let’s see where we are and if a move will be coming soon next week.

The TSP organization sent out an email, if you are on the list, that the transition from the EFA to the ACWI is complete. I will soon be dropping the EFA from my tracking sheets. FYI, ACWI is currently a sell.
