Dow 26k by Jan. 31

[Free bird]

On the way.

Dow 25k. Dow 26k. Dow 30k. Oil $100. Nothing better to do Free bird. A little on the trolly side.

 

[Chuckanut]

On the way.

Now I am getting nervous.

 

[CaliKid]

Let's just hope it's not at 15k later in the year.

Trolly? Had to look that up. Trolling is when your offensive or trying to make someone mad. I dont think I'm offensive or anyone is mad. And what do you care what I do with my time boss?

Are we going to have a new thread each time the dow hits a new high?

These threads should be locked in 3...2....1

I think Frank is probably getting a little tired of my gleeful announcements that "my portfolio hit a new all time high today!", since they have been repeated several times a week lately.

I know small caps are often viewed as the canary in the coal mines but with S&P500 drastically outpacing Russell WDYT?

 

[Hermit]

On the way.

Or not...

All this glee, now I'm really glad that I already rebalanced for the year .

I went an calculated my net worth, been doing it for a decade.

I did it a few days before the year ended, and now .... I should re-do it to be accurate.. need a BIGGER SPREADSHEET

1000 Dow points is only about 4% now. I can recall when it was 100% or more.

You still post like a troll

Honestly.....does it really matter if the DOW, S&P 500, Russell 2000 increases/decrease 10, 20,, 30 %? I don't think so. With an appropriate AA; it is an opportunity to re-balance. Buy stocks on the cheap. Buy bonds on the cheap. It is all good.

For me, it only matters if the future is worse than the past and if my WR turns out not to be safe and I have to get a job to support myself and if I can't find one. At the moment, it seems like pretty slim odds that will happen. But things can change.

100% in a month? When was that?

I hate to be a wet blanket but I personally just don't think the stock rally will last much longer. The tax cuts are already factored in. I hope I am wrong but I just don't see a reason for the market to continue up. We are overdue for a correction/recession. I am rebalancing frequently.

Oh come on, this time it's different

 

[Free bird]

Were on track. Does anyone object?

Nope! Pass the popcorn... I can't look away, with the market doing this well!

Gotta simply enjoy the ride when it's good. Nothin wrong with that. Fear drives stress, forget that. Life's too short let's enjoy this blissful moment like it's the greatest bull run of all time...which I believe it shall be.

 

[Z3Dreamer]

Most of us have been investors in at least 3 terrible market downturns. Maybe some remember 1974 so they count 4. We know that there will be terrible gut-wrenching days ahead as the market corrects, rebalances, whatever. We all know to have that proper AA.

In light of the above, if FreeBird wants to do a dance every day when his portfolio goes up more than he made during his w***ing days, I say "Let me join in his dance." "Let me not rain on his parade."
