    I spread the monies between the C 25% S 50% and I 25%. I feel the market can not sustain the gains it has had since the Election. I think there will be some taking out of the markets. Someone please advise what I should do for Mon? should I leave it alone?

    Hi JSRoss, welcome. My advice is to wait for a drop in prices then sell. I feel that if we get a pull-back, we'll probably be back up the next day so you would be selling at the higher price. Just my opinion, what do I know....:P

    Welcome!

    For myself, I view Mondays asbeing down days for the market. That is why I am usually 100%G on Monday.

    I will especially be 100%G on Monday so I do not lose these post-election gains!!!

    I have a feeling Tom may do the same for Monday.

    God Bless:^

    Actually I'm going to go with mlk_man on this one right now. This is a freight train and I think I will wait before I try to stop it. I will wait until I see a turn before I get out. It may be in a half hour, it may be next week. I will keep you posted.

    And on the exact opposite side of this is yours truly, waiting for some down days before getting back in... *sigh*

    I think I'm inventing new swear words. :P

    From one Mike to another, I feel your pain brother. I was worried about buying back in on the 28th. Glad I did...............
