The stock market

[movetheboat]

A wise and prudent man wouldn’t have been publicly bullish the day before the Fed Chairman meeting with the Senate.

Served up hanging curves will be smashed out of the ballpark…

MOST of my hanging curves get deleted so you have me at a disadvantage sir

Those are the days (fed) the market makes huge moves.....6 weeks we will see that today was just a blip. Maybe not, I'll let the market tell me. I don't trade the market the way you think. So what matters to me is movement up or down. I may have a long term outlook (6weeks) but along the way I have many different positions good for an up market or down and sometimes have no positions. Usually when the market closes on the lows like today it will go up the next day...if not BAD NEWS. And yes I have some 401 and stuff that I have exposed beyond my complete control but like you I don't need them as my monthly retirement checks more than cover expenses.

I actually now have 75% of my play money is in CDs and savings and the rest is trading for chits and giggles. They don't even charge commissions trading anymore so you can pick up some spending money if you get it right.

Anyway NYA is probably not the place to start a thread like this as it appears the grasp or desire to understand this is not there. Too bad....but hey 3 word story is doing well!! lol

I still rec that the young uns just by an index fund making regular monthly purchases and dollar cost avg. Trading is not for them

Oh we do SMASH those out of the park, with a flurry of comical PMs amongst the Mods...

Ah, there is some prudence and wisdom buried in all that bluster...

I was going to say something, but I figure it's better to come from some one who has skin in the game...

Had a funny thought, though. To some, a Bull Market must mean shoveling BS...

LISTEN you bought I-BONDS and didn't even know the rate changed every 6 months, you thought you would get 9% for the duration, and I let that FAT BALL PITCH GO. Maybe BS would help you eh? lolololololol YOU MADE ONE PUBLIC FINANCIAL INVESTMENT and didn't even know how it worked sheesh!!!

The market is not about being right all the time , it's about being right more than wrong.

NOW EXCUSE ME WHILE i MAKE SOME MORE DOUGH TODAY....LOSERS!!!!

Both comments true, BUT the composite I-bond rate right now is 6.98% which is still better than any CD...

The jury will be out on your 6 week plan for another 5 weeks...

 

[movetheboat]

I believe the market may go to test the lows.....protect capital.

Bonds have been doing well and fixed rate is pretty good.

that was march 1st and that Fridays action refuted that.....but it looks like it may have been a head fake. Today will be telling.....strong jobs number today will tank the market

The best market players like the best fisherman are flexible and willing to adjust to changing data. I have seen people stubbornly cling to positions down to ZERO. They fall in love
