Moving to 50C/50I today. Mostly just repositioning for longer term. I may end up 100I eventually, but still assessing. Would have preferred to do this on Friday but got caught up in work. Good...
Good read in USAA's monthly market analysis ... LINKY
Some highlights:
No bear yet ... "While we agree the old bull is looking a little stooped and frail these days, we still think it may...
Thank you for posting these notes. I think every generation has it's Kennedy moment, and for mine I feel like this was it. Or, maybe it's not specific to one generation, but that every 10-20 years...
Interesting read. I think what we'll see this week is definitely not course change. Rates are going up. We will see an emphasis (re-emphasis) that this will be an extremely long and slow process...
Good point. Fuel is something like the poster child we all associate oil with. Reality is we use oil for a heck of a lot more than just energy. The roads we drive on, nearly all plastics, and lots...
Concur. Oil as a primary energy source has had its day and is running out of time. Now, like coal and other "ages" before it, oil will remain an important part of a broad energy system, but...
Nothing new to add regarding my position, but I thought I'd drop in a line of thoughts on the year ahead. I am STILL holding on and I am STILL invested (my autotracker is my reality ...). As stated...
Hanging in there. I'm probably being naive, but I'm still confident going forward this year. Or, I'm just conceding that at this point it's too late to worry, so I won't change. I like what looks...
Bring the pain Johnny Cougar! :sick:

2016 Investment Outlook by USAA
Interesting read. Some highlights:
For us, the main concern about a rate hike is a lack of persuasive proof that the economy has achieved or can soon...
News is freaking out over a day worth of selling. It's one day. Get over it. This is going to be a good year. Not 20% good (except for a few really good timers), but respectable good. As for...
Welcome to the TSP boards. Looking forward to your insights and ideas in the future. Have a great 2016!
Hmm ... too many variables and unknown world event stuff for my taste. I think I'll head for DJI 19,000 instead. :D
If you're able to, you should rename your thread (it's kind of our thing ...). Patten is "Username's Account Talk". Then as you contemplate moves and stuff, let us know what you're up to. You can...
Yep. Big question dwelling on my brain is Yellen/FOMC. It would make sense to think that after all the effort they've made to tell everyone the rate hike is going to happen, that it would be...
Welcome to the boards. I'm cutting and pasting most of this from my standing "welcome aboard" message ...
First, regarding your question, you have to do your homework. It's your money and no one's...
I don't think you'll have to wait long or lose too much. I'm looking at reentry late this week to early next (just wish I could do it 10-20% increments). Good luck.
I went out yesterday. But on Tuesday it was flat until noon so I didn't move, then it jumped to 1% gain by close. I would have gotten out then if it hadn't been flat in the morning. Then yesterday...
All I can figure is post-Yellen/pre-rate increase fear ... basically "selling the news." As we know, bond price moves inversely to interest rates. Well, when the Fed's words came in yesterday,...
Good interview on NPR's On Point with Tom Ashbrook last night. Interviewed Alexandra Suich of the Economist, Josh Rauth of Stanford, and Robert Metcalfe. Metcalfe's insights were especially...
Friggin' 12 o'clock trade deadline ... :banghead:
I chickened out. Going to let some dust settle. Will reinvest if one of two things happen: a) good test of ~17250 DJI, or b) convincing breakout above ~18000 DJI. Good luck to all.
