S&P500 Trend Snapshot

This is just a quick snapshot to see where the S&P500 is going.

Stocks Get Clobbered - Market Timing Model Successful!

I’m still at the spa enjoying the recent market insanity. It’s days like these where I’m reminded how awesome my S&P500 Timing model is (members get my weekly report). I’m glad I took its advice and sold my major holdings in mid December (and October) and moved my money into more defensive assets [...]
