Wheeee - the S&P is up 6 points this week!   I know, I can hardly contain my own excitement either.  It almost makes my cash-out decision of the 19th (where we did open at 1,166)  seem silly what with us missing a 6-point (0.5%) rally this week and all..  Of course, you have to look at the bigger picture like the year-to-date, which has us up a whopping 34 points since January 4th although, to be fair, 18 of those 34 points were gained by Jan 19th, then we had that sell-off thing and THEN we had a nice rally, all the way back to 16 points over the Jan 19th high.  See, I’m not early with my top call - I’m 2 months late!  We could have taken a vacation from Jan 19th to today and missed very little upside action .  We don’t cash out just because we’re at a top.  Hell, we love playing tops, bottoms, middles - whatever…  We cash out when it’s no fun to play and, as many, many members commented this week - it’s much less fun to play when the market turns toppy and churny like it is now.  My cash out call was for a Market Mental Health Break ahead of earnings season and we did have a very nice, relaxing week just hanging out in Member Chat and, yes, making the occasional play but it’s more like when you go to the track and toss a couple of bucks on a race to keep it interesting - and that makes it fun!
