Capitulation?

Yes and the hits keep acoming. I'm sorry for the same folks, myself included. But this week may start a winning streak.

So the question is will the market continue to move up or are we looking at a short bounce. Yesterday was a good day for the "S" fund and today is looking good so far. My luck I will jump back in and then the market will tank again.

That's what I'm thinking, but my RIGHT to WRONG ratio isn't that good. crying-with-laughter.gif

I need your hope to make it keep going up because I need to get out of the negative hole I'm in for the year. I can't believe I was up around 10% earlier in the year and now I am in the negative... I've just been riding the waves since my timing is so bad that at least if I hold on eventually I will get back to where I started right?

Yeah! I'm not very good at picking my in and out spots. I got out of the "S" fund at $21.9053 a share and yesterday it closed at $21.2278. So if I do go in today and the "S" fund equals yesterday's move up I will still get in lower than when I got out. The question is will this be a short term bounce or something we can run with for a few days?

It is always a tough decesion when to get out. It depends on how much pain you can take. But it is even harder to make that move back into the market. I might have made my move yesterday but I went to Cedar Point with my daughters. After a very positive day yesterday and today looking real good do I get in today or will the market take a rest tomorrow with a little red and be a better day to get in. Dang it. Or is this just a tease and June will rip our hearts out just like last year?

Dang this 12 noon deadline. I'm hedging towards 100% S again. I will not be home tomorrow and it just feels like tomorrow might be an exhale day after good gains yesterday and more than likely today. News on the Euro and the G7 summit has to come out good or there will be hell to pay (just a gut feeling). But also Fridays do not have a good track record for being positive going into the weekend. Dang it!!!!
