    Default Low Ki's Account Talk

    I'll finally go back in the green after being in the I fund since 1-5-06. I rode this out because I knew the fund would recover and I was not willing to lock in the loss. Throttling back now to 75% G and 25% I.

    I expect the S&P to continue riding high Monday (hopefully with a slight pullback toward the end of the day today). I'm not, however, convinced that the foreign markets are done yet. I would have been 100% I for Monday had the Nikkei not shot through the roof today.

    Based on this, I'm going 75% S and 25% I for Monday.

    Back to 75%G and 25%I. Not sure what tomorrow's interest rate hike will bring.

    Looks like a big down day across the board. I'm going to use my 30% currently in G to buy into C on what should be a big down day.

    30%C, 35%S, 35%I (2-2-06)

    Backing off to 100%G for a day. I will be looking to get back into the action on Thursday.

    I almost hate getting out of the I fund today, with the dollar up so high against both the Yen and Euro, but I'm not sure that the foreign markets will be up so big tomorrow....

    Ok, I took my break (a bit premature possibly but I'll be okay as long as the pullback doesn't happen tomorrow!).

    Going 100% S and planning to stay 100% invested through the end of the month, barring any drastic changes.

    75%S 25%I (2-27-06)

    Moving some into I, hoping to see the international markets continue forward and the dollar (hopefully) drop a bit.

    Hoping to see the S fund bounce back after three horrid days. :X

    Staying 100% invested, hoping for a Japanese market rally and the USD to slide a bit tomorrow.

    Going 100% G. With the foreign markets up huge today, the dollar dropping like a rock, the Nikkei being closed the rest of the week, AND Bernanke talking tomorrow and probably using some hardline language as well as the ECB meeting this week, I'm fearing a sharp rise in the dollar. Pulling back to lock in some gains.

    I'm at 5.66% on the year and hopefully will be pushing 6.75-7% after today.
