OH, by the way the Fed dropped rates 1/2%
Just in case you missed it.

Is this really a wise move by the Fed?

I don't know what they know or what they are trying to accomplish. We have this initial run up in the market, but I am wondering why interest rates are rising on the 10 year treasury.
Personally, I wish they wouldn't have cut so much. If we have a couple of hic cups in the next few weeks, IMHO we will slide right back down a few hundred points and people will claim the fed doesn't have any ammo left. Again I am not saying anyone else should do this, but I am going to stay 50% in cash until we get into October. |

A market timer as I define one would be either all in or all out. They would also be moving money around a lot more often than every few months. I backed off in April. I am not bragging.
Look at the ups and downs during the summer. A market timer calling things correctly could have made a fortune. However, there are no such things. Market timers (traders) that call things correctly, consistently. |
