Try as I might I can't figure out what's going to happen these next few days. Don't want to miss the leap up when things settle, but DO want to miss the crash when things fall. Hmmm.
I tend to think we'll fall off the cliff for a few days. Not really a great harm, because it won't be permanent, and it'll make everyone more serious. Falling favors Obama's position because all of us will be taxed higher for a few days, paving the way for relief for 98% of us in a new bill that'll be hard for anyone but the 2% super-rich to vote against.
I've been half scared, half greedy, with F-fund and S-fund allocations. But I've been wondering if the I-fund would be a way to avoid US cliff-hanging while still enjoying the holiday market cheer. Now I see 17 of the top 50 on the Auto-Tracker have 50% or more in the I-fund. (What a neat thing to be able to see what the smartest investors are doing with their money now!) Even, so the I-fund has been more or less flat the last 2 weeks or so, same as the S-fund.
Technical point: I'd like to get in on the Auto-Tracker before the new year starts but when I try the message says no such username exists yet. But I can still blog, like right here... Am I doing something wrong?
