Waiting for the...

Post by Chulke »

Today we should see a sell the news reaction to the reports coming out today. I know the futures are up but as soon as those reports hit the sell button will get hit too...


Time will tell!

Maybe? It looks like the market liked the Fed news. What other news are you talking about?
I am just an average Joe. I have no clue to what the market will do.

That would be typical. My dad and grandpa made tons investing. Things were very different generations ago. Everyone invested made money...together. These are different times where greed rules the world. Very sad. People aren't what they used to be.

That prediction sure did backfire, didn’t it?

Yeah...I've said it before and I'll say it again...I am probably the best contrarian indicator of what the market will and won't do...I think "sell the news" and what happens "Buy the news" and the market runs up...I think "transfer to S Fund" and what happens...the "S fund takes a dive" after my money is in the fund....I swear it never fails! Just look back at other posts I've made on here...lol!

Hope everyone was in the right fund for yesterdays action....I'm still sitting in the C waiting to recoup my losses for the year....but the futures are pointing down at the moment soooo...maybe today my predictions from yesterday will be correct for today for a
change...lol!

I just started doing the opposite of what I was going to do, and it worked!

Ahh..George Costanza..George remarks to Jerry in Monk's Café that every decision that he has ever made has been wrong, and that his life is the exact opposite of what it should be. Jerry convinces him that "if every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right".
