    Default James48843 Account Talk

    I moved to "G" today, thinking we got a nice upswing this week, but the news out today was not great, and since we've already had a big up for the month- I figured it will pull back next week about two percent or so. Anyway, that's where I think we are now.

    We'll see.

    100% "G" as of today. I am anticipating a lower opportunity next week to buy back in- and if I can clip 1% It will be good.

    Any thoughts on how oil will play into the equation this summer?

    BY the way-

    Moved to number 26 today on the autotracker. I had been below 100 two months ago. I am now beating the "best performing" index by 1.26% (That would be the F so far this year) AND beating the S&P500 by 6.67% so far this year.

    And have only made 2 moves in february, 2 moves in March, and - until today- only two moves in April. today was a third move.

    Being able to do it on only one in and one out per month is going to be challenging.

    But the object is just to BEAT the S&P500. If you can do that, you are successful. Anything above that is extra.

    And limiting to only two moves per month has made me think much more thoroughly before pulling the trigger to make a move.


    Discipline. That will be THE key on two moves per month.

    Oil is going to have a major drag on the economy. I put 92 bucks worth into my wife's truck tonight. That was money that I could have used elsewhere. ANd I think it will take months for all the affect of higher oil prices to work it way through the economy.

    I think we'll have a slowing summer-

    I think the econmy is going to continue to have a bad time for months, if not a year, to digest what $4 gas means to the average Joe.

    The second "G" spot is located posterior to the C fund - use your imagination. Kinda like up behind the C fund. One has to be correctly positioned to earn the reward.
