PCA Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 So I sold one fund a few days ago at 22.22. This was the high print since the first wave down. it was down $1500 USD from the start of the collapse, but i'm sure it would be down $4000 today if i held it to the close (I'm guessing today the markets get crushed and finishes lower - 300 points or more, or much more. lol). it's so easy to not look at your portfolio, but it's real money... i agree that it is likely healthier and better to not look at things for years......but that's just not me. the question now is....what do i do with the money i just freed up? easy one, stay in cash until the dust has settled. Further downside in the stock market is very probable. Commodities are very interesting but then you really have to know what you're doing.

WorkingTourist Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Billionaire investor Carl Icahn explains why further downside in the stock market is very probable Carl Icahn ...... danger ahead https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyKIvnied-o&feature=youtu.be It is a Donald Trump commercianl. You are a sneaky fellow to insert it here. Good on ya. It might be that Donald Trump is simply inspired by Icahn, as Icahn sent a policy paper to Donald Trump and a bunch of other people, and a few of the ideas in the paper are reflected in Donald Trump’s plan, according to http://finance.yahoo.com/news/read-icahn-policy-paper-sent-to-trump-and-others-151104201.html About the inequality that Icahn talks about, I would look to Robert Reich who have been talking about this for ages, see interview with him here or watch “Inequility for All” available on Netflix: http://www.marketplace.org/topics/economy/big-book-video/robert-reich-trying-save-capitalism I found it peculiar that Icahn had to mention how cheap Apple is, both in his video, and the follow-up interview with Yahoo. Icahn is of course a major shareholder in Apple (though I do not disagree with him, and I’m also a holder of AAPL, but I’m always hesitant to take advice from people who clearly have a chip in the game).

Asiantravel Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 "the reason the markets aren't going lower is people are holding and hoping," Gundlach told Reuters in a telephone interview that "the market bottoms out when people are selling and sold out – not when they are holding and hoping. I don't think you've seen real selling in risk assets broadly. Markets need buying to go up and they need volume to go up. They can fall just on gravity." http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/10/02/us-doubleline-gundlach-idUSKCN0RW24J20151002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puukao Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 sweet.....this thread is still going!!! S&P 500 is under 2000.....but at 1980 it's certainly not in the worst position. I am NOT adding to any longs, and still happy at a sweet mutual fund sale when the market was much higher... market can go either way.......but until we get a close about 2000, I'll keep thinking about the greatest crash the market has ever known!!! in the big picture, i think 1800 is big, and that's almost 200 points away!!!! then you have 1500...another 300 down!!! and during the last crash it stopped at 666........actually, i don't know........but around there and that's 1300 points lower from here!!!!! CRASH CRASH.....!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'er or it might mean that institutions are now coming back into a rising market and taking out shorts as cover for their rising gains. You also do realise of course that for every buyer of a short that there is a seller? Yes, but when they "cover for rising gains" there are more buyers buying the e-mini so that rises in a higher proportion to the cash rate and the difference is closer. I do realise one buyer for one seller but now there are more shorters in the e-mini causing it to fall away from the cash price so less buyers!! If it was 1:1 the market would not change !!

A crash IS imminent as USA financial institutions are insuring their holdings by shorting the emini CFD very heavily now.SELL or SHORT !! Perhaps you could elaborate on your experience, expertise and track record in making prognostications such as this one. You have to have access to the price of the S&P cash rate as against the e-mini price. I pay for a service and cannot give more details because of confidential clauses. But when the e-mini is a lot lower than the cash price then the big boys are "buying" e-mini shorts or shorting the S&P as they fear the market will fall and want to insure the stocks they have bought for their clients.. (But they do not tell their clients they are making money from shorting the market .. just getting commission from the suckers buying shares through their companies.) I think the market will fall from what I just said so have shorted the e-mini myself, but if I was an expert at prognostications would I be living in a rural part of Thailand mainly relying on a pension?? Perhaps a bit flippant with my orginal comment. There is a problem with shorting the e-mine too early though. The bigger-big boys push the rate up alarmingly causing us shorters out of the game then bang they short and down it goes. Look how the market rose just prior to the last crash. That is one of my "expertises" !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
