Just got back actually. It was a blast! We hit the West Carib. as well.. Cozumel, Grand Caymen, Jamaica


The next 6 months are gonna be hectic. On top of normal work, I need to get my EIDWS pin within a month (cramming!), transferring to texas for school (packing, checking out, traveling, checking in), transferring to georgia ultimately (pack, check out, travel, check in, unpack, find a house, buy a house, move in).. and to top it all off, we're planning a wedding for January 14, 2012! My only escape hobby right now is the stock market, hahah..

Hi - nevermind me, Im taking over the message board, for lack of better things to do.

I would love to go on a cruise. Is there a grandmother out there wanting to adopt a grandadult?

Almost IFT'd to G this morning to retreat with today's gains but thought twice. I know it's a pretty rough time to be in, but I think with so many earnings coming this week, we should see more gains in the next few days. I'll probably look to retreat on Thursday or Friday.

Looks like we got quite a bit closer to a decision on the debt situation today. This could mean good things for the market in the days ahead if they can pull the trigger on something/anything..

After getting such a nice boost yesterday and seeing today's futures at about half a percent up, I'm very tempted to run away with these earnings. I'm gonna play it down to the wire today though. I want to see what the progress looks like on the debt deal. If things are looking good, it might be worth hanging in there just to be in when a deal is signed.

IFT'd 100% G fund today and took some nice gains with me. I've been in the market for far too long. Time to take a breather, sidestep some dips, and look for a new entry point.

Might look to get my hands dirty soon. Debt deal may get inked this weekend. After that blows over the market can focus back on earnings season. Also bought more CSTR this morning at a discount. The stock dipped over 6% last night on news of their CEO resigning but I see the company posting strong earnings for awhile.

Looking at my daily returns on the Autotracker, my account had a 7% upswing from June 24th - July 7th.. Wish I snagged that without the before and after beatings! My goal for the 2nd half of the year is to decrease my risk and choose my entry and exit points carefully. That said, I do think there will be plenty of gains to be had in these 3rd and 4th quarters of 2011. May everyone prosper!

Looks like the S fund is down about 2% on the day just before noon, coming close to about 4% in 3 days if I'm not mistaken.. Very tempting to jump in for COB today but I'm going to stay disciplined and wait for good news. That may come tonight, and I may be in COB tomorrow

I couldn't agree with you more.
