    I was just responding to Whipsaw's comment about the market losing steam.

    As for "full speed ahead", let's see what the next few days brings.

    Looking into December, I am worried that a rate hike will kill any Santa Claus Rally... reference last year's rate hike... and the disaster that followed...

    Thanks JP! I love steam locomotives! Yes, full steam ahead! It is the dawn of a new day in America

    Powder is dry, ready for deployment; I think RF has an astute point about a potential rate hike, maybe last licks from those headed for the door? Looking for a strong Santa Rally this year, optimism should be up big.

    Only 1 in 3 chance of a rate hike in December?

    After all of Trump's rhetoric regarding the FOMC, I bet they raise.

    I want in but don't want to buy high. After Brexit, the market kept going, which would put us well into new highs; not sure this market has that kind of leggs... ???

    It is always difficult to enter the market after a new high has been set. In my experience, a new high is usually followed by a pullback. As an example, the S&P500 hit a new all time high of 2190.15 on 15 Aug. It then fell to 2125.77 on 14 Sep. That's a 65 point drop in just 30 days.

    Just a little food for thought.

    Almost pulled the trigger on Thursday... then I thought let the dust settle after watching a couple of the vids Nnut posted. We'll see soon enough, lots of exuberance out there, apparently business is getting fired up over opportunities coming down the pike in energy, trade, deregulation, lower taxes. But, hey, I'm back on the Top Poster's list!
