"It isn’t just complacency that is suggestive of a short-term market correction. There are numerous others as well."


"As my friend Daniel Lacalle recently posted, Morgan Stanley's market timing indicator is at levels that have typically coincided with market downturns. Just for reference, the current reading is the most “bearish” on record."

It didn’t seem like a very strong finish today. I’m glad I’m sitting out right now. But, I’ll be watching for a chance to get back in.

Same here... Seems like it should be soon. I guess we will see. Best wishes to you!

So, I’m assuming this won’t be one of those holidays where the market closes? It seems like they probably should.

Interesting RR didn't even think of that. I'm surprised the government acted so quickly to give the federal employee the day off. If the market stays open all day I hope we can see some green. It's been a dismal week.

while many are - not all business are recognizing the holiday either... yet. i'm guessing they weren't ready for it; but, will be next year. not sure about the exchanges.

Quadruple witching, occurs on the third Friday of the month of every quarter, in March, June, September, and December, and refers to the simultaneous expiration of single-stock options, single-stock futures, and stock-index options and stock-futures.

Perhaps today is just a rebound off the lows, but I'm inclined to roll the dice with a reentry tomorrow. At COB today I'll be 60% I, 20% S and 20% C. If it doesn't work out I may trim my entry into the C & S Funds, but the I Fund looks promising to me as it still sits mostly outside of the Bollinger band's southern boundary. I was looking for an entry point towards the end of the month. This is new territory for me to be so heavily invested in the I Fund, but I just have this gut feeling.

The juice isn't worth the squeeze to me. Too much risk. Can get similar or better results from the C or S fund with less risk.

Feel like heading to safety today. I’m leaving just a little on the table with 5% each in C, S, and I Funds. I’d hoped to stay in at least through the first of the month, but, oh well.

It was tempting to buy the dip today, but I'm staying put for now. Great morning recovery, though off of those early losses. There's still a lot of month left, so I'm keeping my powder dry for now.
