Here's something you don't see everyday! ⚾️🐶 (h/t HeckinGoodDogs/TW)

We have now bounced off the 10% drop, twice, on the stock market. Normally drops test their bottoms three times. If they drop substantially more, breaking through the bottom, they will normally drop more. If they bounce off it the third time we have established a floor. Isn't this market fun! Remember; Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

We may be in the middle of the correction I have been hoping for. The market could drop ten percent or so. That's 2600 points.🙂 At the ten percent down point is where I personally start trying to add to my stock portfolio. I have said in the past to occasionally take some profits and sit in cash waiting for an opportunity to present itself. Look at pull backs and corrections like you would a sale at the store. You're buying at a discount. HAPPY INVESTING

I liked most things about the new tax law when I first looked at it. The more I look at it the more I like it. What we had wasn't working. Our country doubled its debt in the last eight years so changes had to be tried Time will tell how successful these new tax brackets, etc., work out. Keep cash on hand for any significant pull back in the market, but, looking ahead I am very bullish. More so than I was a few months ago. Again, don't get overly exuberant. Keep some cash on hand to allow you to invest on any market corrections. And remember, these comments are not investment advice. Just my musings. Any individual advice can come only if your advisor knows your financial situation, goals, dreams, and aspirations. HAPPY INVESTING.

The market continues to rise over enthusiasm of the proposed tax bill. Don't be afraid to take profits and accumulate some cash on the sidelines. Everyone should have substantial gains over the last couple of years and cash will be great to have when the next downturn happens. Remember, you never go broke taking a profit.

The market continues to rise. It's as if it believes nothing will not get done by this president. It says the healthcare reform will take place, the tax reductions are coming, Russia issues will go away, etc.. I'm not getting political here. I'm just saying the indexes have tended to ignore any negative news and money keeps going into the market. With rising interest rates, a big negative for bonds, much cash has come out of bonds recently into stocks. We normally have a nice correction in the market over the summer or fall. Keep a good percentage in cash and be ready to invest back in the market on the next pullback, but keep most in if you believe the old adage, "don't fight the trend". The trend is up. Happy investing.
