You will be proven to be correct, sooner than later.


OK.

When?

Not true. At least, not true for me.

At some point, you realize how much you've got at risk, and the risk includes loss of upside. Opportunity cost, if you will, of NOT being invested. I've watched my investments grow from modest accounts to a portfolio over the past couple of decades.

I sleep just fine, whether the market is up or down. I've got 11 years to go. I know I'll retire in 2028.

And I continue to contribute 23% of my annual earnings toward my retirement funds.


I understand, but some people nearing retirement worry about something similar to what happened in 2009.

I'm invested 100% in stocks and I'm full in throttle max contribution mode till the day I retire.

Were in a correction right now. So far it's been a mild one. Could be Sector Rotation. This Correction may end up like the November Correction to work off an Overbought market. GL

I'm still doing my taxes and calculating my capital gains from last year.

I'm not worried about the market taking a big hit. Sometimes I watch Nightly Business Repot to see what the experts have to say...

Down from all time highs by less than 2% is a correction?

 

[dblshock]

been adding to positions this week again.

 

[dblshock]

hope S&P finally breaks support today...AVXS and NFLX right there too.

 

[dblshock]

what a laborious task breaking this trend

'nothing more sad than the death of an illusion'

 

[dblshock]

2350 (50MA) was breached today with a 2345 close, the former now becomes resistance.

Trump is handing out Free Money. He told the WSJ that the dollar is to strong. So if they drive down the dollar....Gold will rally. I currently own NUGT.

 

[Mr Nice]

Handing out free money ?

Please explain.

 

[dblshock]

This N.Korea thing would be an epic bloodbath, lot of natives there...add that to your laundry list.

 

[Y_K]

By resisting the trend you support it.. I'd watch for pre- "Sell in May" rally. T-Notes also entrapping quite a few bulls. The best cure for this itch is to take a vacation..

this has become a slow rot to (200MA)
