    OK, now I'm feeling a little bad about my decision. The C fund was the winner today. I jumped to the I fund because I felt it was the bargain with the dollar rally, but it could go higher before it hits resistance at the moving averages. If the markets do not turn around in the next two days I will be much more worried and will jump out until support is found. On the C fund it looks like mid-1480's is next support, then around 1475 and if that don't hold the 200 dma.

    Good luck and good night.

    OK, now I'm feeling really bad about my decision. The FTSE is at the 200 day SMA so I might as well hold on for now and kick up my contributions massively.

    This chart does not show todays action, but the FTSE is right above the 200 day.

    End of the month coming up so you might see some window shopping. Hang in there! We didn't start the year too great either remember.

    Mlk,
    That is a good point and I hope you are absolutely correct.

    Talking Show-me Account House of Pain

    Well, well, well, how the tide has shifted things. Question is: Is this the bottom or just the beginning? Depends on who ya read.

    The sub-prime problem is coming home to roost and I believe we have not seen the worst. Will it continue to effect the rest of the market?

    The good: Earnings are doing OK.

    The bad: Durable Goods and New Home Sales took a big whack. Countrywide made the statement that, "We are experiencing home price depreciation almost like never before, with the exception of the Great Depression."

    The ugly: The dollar bounce will I was in the I fund.

    I increase my contributions again and in two more week will reevaluate.

    That's all I got, exercising the below signature I stoled from Tom.

    We are in the worst 6 months and the Bollinger Bands are widening (stuff getting more volatile)......

    This rookie would like to think you are wrong, but at this point I would have to agree with you, and for me I just don't think the risk is worth the potential loss.

    Yep, I'm hanging on for a the proverbial "dead cat" if I don't get some positive action by Wed. I am into "house renovating mode".

    On a good note my Honeybees are make'n money and I have not had to spend a lot of money on gas to mow the yard. We are still in a drought. Counties all around us get rain, all we get is squat.

    I don't think you will see uptick from end of month. Maybe beginning of month. Do you window dress on a big down month? I'd think you'd want to be seen as in cash.
