Month: April 2012

Closing numbers for April 2012

The G, F, and L fund were the only funds that were positive for the month of April. Year to date, things still look awesome, but the last few weeks of the market have been shaky. We are also entering May where the last two years the Summer churn started. So after today negative move,…

Well it turned out to be a very good week for those that stayed in, but when I went back and looked at my charts from the close last Friday and then saw the market action Monday, I would still play it the same way. I have said  this many times because it is so…

Isn’t that special????

I think that makes two for two!!!! I pulled out of the market Monday the bottom for the month and week and it has gone up everyday since. I did this October 4th of 2011 also. It was the exact day of the bottom and maybe just maybe I called it here again. Below you…

Tuesday night update, 4/24/12

We are still right in the middle just waddling along with no real direction. Today we got a little upside and tomorrow I expect more because of what happened after the close tonight.

I stayed in.

Well if I would have had time this morning to bailout of the market I think I would have done it. I was about 3 minutes to late when I got my first break of the day and once I looked at the market action, I felt I missed an opportunity to bail. Most of…

TSP weekly numbers 4/13/12

In a word, Nasty ! The S&P 500 closed right on top the 50 day moving average and right on what I consider a major support at $1370. I really thought after Alcoa made better than expected earnings Tuesday and then Google beat on Thursday, that Friday would be a plus day. Apparently there was…
