Friday over Friday, the S&P finally closed lower; something that it has not done in a few weeks.
It closed at the high of the day of 1515, however, it could not close over last Friday's close of 1519.
There was high volume selling, but low volume buying. I think the market has finally turned over.
What % are you guys that stayed in up right now?
I'm down only .22%, but I did squander the last 40 points of this rally....
Oh well... I always say you never sell at the top, and you never buy at the bottom.

Anyone who knows anything about investments and active trading knows that NO ONE can repeatedly pick the tops and bottoms, so don't beat yourself up. Not that you are--you did great in 2012. We all know getting anxious can lead to poor results. Let's see if we see a correction here...

OK! I'm in the black, just like that
1375 on the S&P is our next stop, sequester or not.
There was a huge reversal in bonds from last Thursday on, so if the S&P closes lower, Friday over Friday, for the next few weeks, you know that a correction is in the cards.

I made enough off Apple last year to liquidate and pay off my second mortgage. I'm not going to further push my luck; I'm riding it up or down from now on.

Interesting week so far.
The S&P is sitting right at last Friday's close of 1515.
If it closes lower tomorrow, It'll be the second week in a row it will have closed lower, week over week.

China growth just released as flat. Tomorrow the sequestration starts. My bet is we go down.

I vote "up", it's the first smart thing the government has done in almost five years.

The china thing is more disconcerting. Was there any additional color on this?

What is it going to take to stop this momentum? Maybe it won't stop?

My friend Dave came across an article that tied every stock market upswing with an infusion of printed money from the fed.

Artificial momentum with no real "business" to back it?

Stay liquid my friend. I feel the pain on the upside, but the absolute liquidity on the downside will pay large dividends.

Remember, you don't have to make it all in one trade.
