The I Fund is not doing so bad.

It would appear to me that someone is trying to steal one of my wall flowers - Associated Estates RLTY (AEC) for an all cash buyout. This does not please me - let there be a white knight to the rescue. The market controls me not the other way around - so I'll be looking for a replacement.

Investing straight ahead and not looking back as long as I have dividends doing the heavy lifting. I'm not giving up any of my capital gains just yet.

You posted this the week before last...So now the 2119 is being played with...I hope you are right about the breakout!

I now have acquired 66 dividend increase announcements ytd - so progress continues. This could be a year of slow money growth.

It was a week that wasn't. My oceanic was just floating around: -$33K, +$39K, - , -$72K, +$63K for a small give back of -$3K. I did however make a +$28K for the month of April compared to a $0 gain in April 2014. May of 2014 handed me a +$100K gain - I'm almost there in one day. So May should be very profitable this year. In February 2015 I took in +$458K so there is plenty of potential if the market wishes to propitiate. I'm excited about the rest of this year - I may even blow out a few lily padders on the tracker by the end of the month.

Without sounding overly braggadocio I plan to use some of my spill money to pick up some more oil stocks come Monday - I'll be adding to already existing positions with perhaps a few new wall flowers to sweeten the portfolio. I'm constantly reminding myself as a cycle rider that this is the year when the Kress yearly cycles all kick into the upside - that could mean several $M for me. I'll also be adding to my IEV I shares Europe ETF. No fear here - just keep it moving along.

I'm punching out some spill money today and buying: BTU, CLF, BTE, IEV, SDRL, ANR, SBGL, TRN. I still have many more wall flowers on my list.

I fell from #27 to #37 on the tracker - today may be different. Looking to get past bjean. There is a slew of S funders further down the tracks that may never catch the caboose of this bull train. My plan is to be in the teens by the end of May.

Looking back 3 weeks ago the market was down -279 one day and took -$97K from my oceanic account (Birchtree 300). Perhaps today I'll get most of that back. We'll most likely close +300 with new SPX highs. Money is getting ready to slam into this market and push the Dow +1000 points higher - be in to win.
