So how far is this S fund gonna run?

Post by Chulke »

Just how much of a bubble is it in? How far up is it gonna go before the bubble bursts?

Thoughts?

Anyone foreseeing S to reach $100 before the fallout?

Don't know. Though "seasonal" moves to safe ground today. I kind to want to stay "in the market" but its more my greediness, but I am going to stick to my seasonal plan. Its hasn't failed me yet in two years.

I'm sticking with my plan, but if you do anything, I would suggest to stay with your chosen seasonal. I would suggest, however, if your seasonal has you go into the F fund (for the foreseeable future), try to stick with G or some variation like 50% G and 50% F or so. I'm planning on going into 90% G and 10% L Income. That way if there is some growth, I can enjoy it and if there's a loss, the F fund should help shore up a bit of that loss.

Enjoy!

My plan was to move from S to F today, but I am going to delay a day based on the current 2% down on S fund and .2% up on F Fund. I hope that there will be a bounce and it wont be as bad tomorrow.

i guess. the way i see it, the chance that the market will bounce tomorrow is roughly the same as the chance it'll recover by 4pm today, which is probably the same chance that the market will drop even deeper tomorrow than today :cry:

none of us will know which outcome plays out until after 4pm tomorrow. so often i just decide to stick with what has worked for me empirically over the years--stick with my preselected plan's moves--regardless of the day to day fluctuations.

good luck to us huh?

I'm going 70G/30C today. The S had a good run and I got some great gains, so I'm hoping leaving some in C will balance out as it seems low and from what I've typically seen the C moves positive after Febuary. Can't say anything for certain, but I'm hoping it goes that way.
