Hopefully the jobs report, which is expected to be positive, will keep the rally going another day.

Crap. I got busy and was not concentrating. I had planned on jumping out today and come back next week. Missed the deadline so now i wait for my fate.

So far fate has not kicked me in the ass. Too much. Plan was going to be go f fund for a few days and then go 100% s or i fund. Now i cant decide which fund to go 100% to.

Last year at this time i think i had pulled out to g fund and had used up all ifts. Which had given me about a 3% gain for the month. But last year the s fund rolled forward for a gain of about 7.5% gain there were very few opportunities to get back in.

So what to do this january. Stay in, getbout hope for downtrend again?

It's a hard call, If we get bad 4th Quarter projections, and the dollar decides to go strong.....Bad News!
But we're bouncing against resistance lines and we could see the POP to push us through....Hope springs eternal!

Well, I moved to 50% G, 40% F and left 5% in both S and I funds today.

Too much headaches coming.

Mali
Gun control by Obama
French fighting a war??? Oh come on now, who thinks the French can win without help?
Islamists taking American hostages and a BP refinery. That can not be good.
4 day flat top on S&P while hitting massive resistance.

Time to take a break.

where's joan of arc when you need her lol

I forgot to mention the debt ceiling
and possible downgrade by fitch.

The last downgrade cost me big time.

4.16% for a month for me is plenty.

Dont be greedy is my number one rule.

Yea it's always good to sock away some gains, it's never your money until you take it off the table...

I moved 100% s about a week ago. Smart move so far.

but what amazes me is that yesterday the s fund took a small lose of .06% yet my vanguard account took a significant jump. Maybe a .5% increase. I can never figure out what moves the s fund. Stocks were mostly up yesterday.

So what gives?
