Thread: Valkyrie's Account Talk

taking the 3.83% gain for the last 2 wks and whatever gain for today and
going to G fund COB. Will avoid the profit taking on 7/5 and then get back in.

6/20 thru 6/29 up 4.47% was in the F and G funds 6/1 thru 6/16 for a slight increase.

S fund, buy and hold will be down for the month unless there is over a 3.17% increase today.

Buy and hold only works for dividend stocks/funds not index funds.

is constipation another term for buy and hold?

Buy and hold works best if you dollar cost average into your position. My wife has a defined contribution retirement plan with 26,000 shares of a S&P 500 index fund and that's $26K a point. We'll take $100K/year going forward because the SPX is ready to become a leader of the bullish trend.

got the down monday I was looking for, a week late however.

The Future of the Stock Market Depends on this Company
By Jeff Clark
Tuesday, July 19, 2011

The stock market is teetering on the edge of the abyss.

If the S&P 500 can't hold the 1,300 level, 1,250 could be in the cards. If the index can climb back in off the ledge and somehow manage to rally from here, we could be looking at new yearly highs by August.

There's a lot at risk. And there's a lot of potential reward. So who can you trust to steer you in the right direction?

Goldman Sachs (GS).

even more reason to stop putting money into TSP account

On Poland and Detroit. Not For the Faint of Heart. | Barnhardt

I read about these plans first during Clinton's first term. since then i have done the 5% matching and that's it, the rest goes to private accounts. Now it looks like it might be time to stop the 5% also.

"As I have written recently, the Obama regime is already using pension money to manipulate the so-called debt ceiling, namely the Thrift Savings Plan money, which is the government 401(k) equivalent for government employees, government retirees and the U.S. military. Yeah, all of these US military officers who are “going along to get along” so they can “make it eight more years until I get my pension” are chasing money that is already gone. Morons. The regime has already taken it, and all that is sitting in those accounts are worthless IOUs issued by neo-Stalinist oligarchs. They’re just too uninformed and deluded to understand this. This is why the national debt figures published by the government have not changed in months and months. They are using the TSP money to fraudulently offset public debt on the balance sheet."

The regime has been fairly open about its plans to “nationalize”, read CONFISCATE, this collateral and implement a system of “mandatory retirement savings accounts”, which will be just another confiscatory redistribution into the hands of the oligarchs and their cronies. This what Poland just did. This is what MF Global was in its essence. This is what Cyprus was, except the Cypriot confiscation was done to demand deposit accounts instead of retirement accounts, which is now termed a “bail-in” – but it is all of the same stripe, namely the utter destruction of the notion of private property and the redistribution of all wealth into the hands of the oligarchs. In Poland, the private pension paradigm has now also been destroyed because no one will want to put money into a private pension after this knowing that it can and will be stolen by the government at any time with zero redress.

wow...your first post in a long time was a whopper! Now you have me re-thinking my percentages (TSP vs private investments). I always have been worried about the G.

The stock market should be falling.

Last week, many technical indicators were showing negative divergence. We also had an early warning sign that the Volatility Index (the "VIX") was about to reverse. And the McClellan Oscillator showed that stocks were overbought.
The market is "wrong." But as traders, we can't get caught up with that. It doesn't matter what should have happened. And we can't worry about whether or not the market may still decline. The bottom line is, for the moment, the momentum train is running higher. You can either hop on board, get out of the way, or get run over. (sounds like Birch)
