Agree. Trying to time the market will usually get you in trouble.

sometimes you have to modify the strategy in conjunction to the market in front of you. Correction to fair value coming next week.

if I had a nickel for every time I thought that and then had to sit on the sidelines watching everybody else make big gains, I'd be a rich man, LOL

There have been years the S&P has had over 30% gains. We are only at around 16% so far this year. Additionally, we have a president who loves the stock market and constantly wants to say/do things to inflate it. My guess is, unless there's a problem with tax reform passing, we are going to see some big gains through the end of the year!

Even if you ride it down, many times on the way back up it goes higher.

I think he happens to be there at the right time. If you do little, I still think the economy grows. I don't expect much, but we'll see.

Best

let me clearify, i don’t think the market is gunna crash by no means but i expect at least a 3%-5% pullback by the end of the month. this means that IFT into C or S early november at a discount price before the “santa claus” rally into Janurary!

Are you predicting a -5% pullback? If so, when next week?
