    Yeah, I know, it was just an idea. But OMG, you give me the puke emoticon? For my idea? At least it had some intelligent thought in it? Mmmph!

    You know I must retaliate with truly puke-emoticon-worthy stuff.

    Enjoy your weekend @bone ! AHAHAHAH!

    But recently I believe even the FED has been saying that low interest rates are actually hurting more than helping. I think this rise in equities has been the only saving grace, because at least these funds are getting their necessary yield there. But if interest rates stay this low for much longer, which I think they will, other sectors are getting hurt. I do read Wolf Street quite a bit, and he outlines well how badly banking stocks have done around the world.

    So everyone is chasing yield, and at some point, where are they going to get it from once everything has been tapped?

  3. Overnight,

    I do not follow politics or news or what presidents say. I just want to make money.

    As far as I am concerned, Donald Trump is best president to me. He doing everything right. I do not see one thing Donald Trump is doing wrong. I check my account and I am up 26.19% on the year. Thank you Donald Trump and whoever else is involved in making the stock market go upwards. If they breaking the law to make the market go up, keep on the breaking the law.

    Donald Trump damn sure has my vote at the next election.

    And people say there is no euphoria and cash is on sidelines and uncertainty.

    Read this when you say there is some uncertainty and wall of worry.
    There is just wall of freshly printed money

    LMAO

    I'm up 22% on my retirement account and will say that these gains are not going to sustain themselves. If you believe you are going to get a continous 20% return while trump is in office and possibly reelected for the next 5 years you are foolish.

    Once you see that dip coming you will definitely feel you should have sold some of that fund, oh and you might change your mind on trump.

    Obama's "track record" is better.

    Track record in quotes because neither man is responsible for what markets do in the end.

  10. S2007S,

    Let think about your statment. Please answer the following questions?

    1. How will I see the dip coming?
    2. How much of the fund to sell when the dip comes?
    3.When will I change my mind back to liking trump?
    4. If I see the dip and sell, WHEN will I buy back the fund?

    To remove me from the equation to how to long term invest in the market, I have concluded I do not KNOW SHIT. So what I do is this, I buy the market rather it goes up or down, when my account reaches $1.5 Million, I will sell it all and never long term invest again in my life.
