Those 5 positive years created 38, 3-Day, -3% events, with an average of -5.46%
In comparison, the last 5 negative years had 130, 3-Day, -3% events with an average of -4.96%
My long-winded point, we are going to have less -3% pullbacks during these bull runs, which totally sucks because I'm a bargain hunter and I'm beginning to starve...

Re: James48843 Account Talk
Still no pull back. Strange.
Here is history of the start of the year, vs. the rest of the year.
S&P 500 is up almost 10% so far this year, one of the best starts to a year going back all the way to 1928.
Where will it go next?

ok- It's been a darn good run. But that 3.5% inflation bugaboo this morning tells me time to take a break.
Inflation comes in hotter than expected in March
I'm moving to 100% "L-Income" today. Done good for the spring- now taking a break.
Good luck. !

I'm lucky my adult children are still young enough to let me step up on my soap box. Inflation is the worst tax there is, it's inescapable for everyone and erodes everything it touches. That's 3 months of higher inflation, we now have a trend...
