Still hanging around here between $51 and $53.
The range is getting smaller..

I'm in cash and waiting.

We don't know the future directions. However, should there is a good bargain discount, will be an opportunity.
Good positioning in cash and patience waiting..

The SP500 is a good BUY and HOLD. Over longer period of time, it will reward you.

Regarding all time high..Not just SP500, but Dow and Nasdaq too. All time highs for all 3 yesterday. Even small caps rallied.
SP500 2400 will be here soon. But, it may pull back down first and then, the late comers will jump back in, we'll have the next leg up.  biggrin.gif

HOLDING POWER IS KING too. VIX is very optimistic / greedy mode. When is correction? Perhaps there isn't any for year 2017, as bull market is going uptrend to last 2 stages in 18 - 24 mths. Finger crossing. Just a thought.

Buy and hold opposite sky high counters, example gold/silver/platinum /zinc / copper .etc other precious metals either in mining /trading counters. For reference only. AXU, GSS, AKG, HNR ..etc

Previous ratio from early 1st - 6th bull stages
sky high counters : gold / natural resources / precious metals
40 -->> 70 70: 30 30 << -- 60

7th - 8th bull market till next crisis ??? New ratio
Sky high counters : gold / silver ...etc
70 -->> 40 40 : 60 60 << -- 30

Just a thought + example only. Sky high counters dividend Will be varies accordingly too. No need daily monitoring and stay very late.. if the Sky high counters koyak, opposite counters excited and vice versa. No need daily update / comment here on little thing.

Many peoples like to play games in casino or buy 4D / Toto /Jackpot or online betting.
Probability of winning is damn low. Who got the higher chance ?

Why like to play these games? Why not, you own / invest into gaming companies that legally owned these games and hope to get quarterly quite attractive dividends YIELD ? Here we got magnum, toto, pmp , while in USA/HK got Wynn, Las Vegas Sands, MGM, Caesars, MPEL ...

Glad to hear that. with currency exchange rate appreciates too.
Hard to control your emotion, especially making good ROI.
Few of my friends in another whatapp group, holding equities since year 2009 and already got their capital return plus enjoying dividends, now still in 9th years Bull market since 2008/2009 disasters.

Don't trust any trading adages, like buy in October, sell in May plus go away.. or time the market.. any good mega sales discount, will be always a good bargain hunting.. Cash is king too. Don't pour everything in equity too.

Agreed on the above. Best part for investors, is no need to stay up very late to see any movements/check news
which may reflect directions.

I'm curious, why such a conservative asset allocation? That's my target asset allocation at age 60, except with a mix of inflation-protected/intermediate-term bonds instead of gold.
*
Year 2009 = equity 80% : 20% FD
Year 2011 = equity 80% : 10% FD : 10% Gold
Year 2014 = equity 60% : 10% FD : 30% Gold
Year 2017 = equity 50% : 50% Gold ?
Year 2019 = equity 30% : 50% Gold : 20% FD ???
Year 2022 = ??

Bond is stable maturity ROI, gold or precious metals are better ROI performance.Gold or precious metals here, can also refer to mining companies listed in AMEX, Toronto Stock Exchg (TSX), NYSE and gold ETF . Different people, different views and strategies. https://www.google.com/amp/s/zuuonline.sg/i...comparison/amp/

Capital preservation and fixed income? That's perfectly fine. Each person chooses their asset allocation so they can sleep easily at night.

For long term investor, certainty can sleep well. biggrin.gif Just open phone apps / laptop occasionally at 9:30pm - 10:30pm.
Watch CNN/ Bloomberg / CNBC and plan to sleep before 11:15pm . nod.gif

No need to stay up till very "early morning" to see directions /graph movement, look up for amazing news, ..etc rclxs0.gif

I don't market time or trade on news. Usually I just do a lump sum investment with a set-it and forget-it style. I do have some toy portfolios like the "all-weather portfolio" and the "permanent portfolio" that performed quite well since 2015, though. Those are great for passive investing, but I would adjust some of the weights because of the large long-term bond and gold allocations.

15th lowest petrol price in the World.
Goodies / Foods price hike or inflation cpi up when petrol price is up..

Good question = Will goodies / foods price reduce when petrol price is down? WHY trader / bosses who want big profits margin? Hope more oil shale outputs will stabilize world crude oil price. 1st April petrol price down ?? Consumers will think thrice and make prudent budget, buy necessary items and always go to shops selling lowest price. Similar to USA or civilized first world country habits? Smarter and more inflation awareness surrounding consumers in the future.
