    Those are the types of moves that I should be making. Might only be working for about 5 more years though.

    I'm in 50% C and 50% S and I've been retired for six years. Aways better to make money, although I always keep in mind that old tough prisoner on the train in "Slaughter House Five" who kept saying I've been through tougher times than this, until thay found him frozen to death one morning.

    Hey Whipsaw, glad to see you finally got back in the game. Hopefully you timed it properly and got in for the ride back up. Today was a good day to be in equities as I am retracing the last two days down. Always tough to time it just right so I'll make the best of it.

    Now let's make some cash!!!

    I've been waiting for the downside action to play out, thought we were there yesterday with the pop, now futures are down BIG. I only went in 50% as it was a coin toss that we don't go down again. Hoping we're not entering a bear market, don't believe so... need to pick a spot for the other 50%, maybe today...?

    Yield curve and recession fears have been kicking around for months, curious as to why today it hits hard?
    Dow futures down over 400 points on weak Chinese, German economic data, U.S. yield-curve inversion

    C Fund up 0.25%, S Fund down -0.17%, I Fund up 0.38%, F Fund up 0.46%.

    Not exactly the bounce I was anticipating, but still positive so I'll take it.

    Yes, but was hoping for much better in anticipation of more pain tomorrow

    It seems the bounce was delayed a day for some reason. Yesterday looks like a bottoming tail on C and S, strength today and hopefully a strong follow through next week. Would certainly like to be on the right side of this market for a while. Have a great weekend everyone!
