I don’t know where you guys put your money, but I’m at 94% of my all time high…. My all time high was within the last 4-6 weeks
Now if I look at just the dollar amount it is almost what I make per year. All in all I’m good though |

I finally went fully back in 3 weeks ago. The economy was pretty much flat lined with no down turn from the extra unemployment benefits ending. Unemployment has been dropping. I figured worst case things just stay stagnant but was hoping the holiday shopping would provide a boost. I figured wrong.

Freaking out over being 4% down from record highs just one month ago? I don’t even have online access to my 401k. I turned it off. I don’t need to look at it because my bahaviour won’t change. Just mail me my quarterly statements so I can review. There is zero need for me to check my 401k balance. I just need to check that contributions made/buys are as I directed, which comes via the quarterly statements. Just as there is zero need for people to check their 401k balance. |

I figured worst case things just stay stagnant but was hoping the holiday shopping would provide a boost. I figured wrong. You got Omicroned! Sure did and the virus wasn't even the problem, the media was. People didn't even know Omicron existed until after they ran tests on people with no symptoms. Then the world freaked out because "it has 30 protein mutations" even though they have no idea what those might do. The media is already in spreading full fear mode, in 3 to 6 months it will be worse than any other peak. Remember 6-8 months ago when Democrat doctors were telling people "everyone must get vaccinated in the next 4 weeks or we will have a massive outbreak" and that never happened. Hopefully the fear mongering dies down. One ETF that I'm holding is DFEN and it keeps dropping which makes no sense. Israel is ready to hit Iran. China is messing with everyone. Russia is starting fights. The UK is driving their F35s into the ocean. War in space is starting to heat up. Everything is primed for something to kick off. |

Personally I pulled about 25% off the table this week. Probably dumb, probably a mistake but whatever.
My concern is the Fed saying they’re done printing for now. At the exact same time that the new variant is out. I know the new variant will be mild, but if it bypasses the vaccine, then everyone is going to be missing 2-3 days of work as everyone gets it. |

I keep buying more when it goes down. The powers that be won't let it all fall apart - it's "too big to fail" (which is code for them having too much of their own money in there to let it collapse). ...at least that's how I justify pouring money into the market. :D

Holy shit leave it alone. If you actually had an edge, your 401k wouldn't be your primary vehicle for exploiting that edge in the first place. Don't confuse getting lucky with being smart. |

I only look on Friday after the market closes.
Been impressive since the initial coronavirus drop though. Up up up. Little rocking the boat doesn’t bother me. Only thing that bothers me is I stumbled across my dream car that I was planning to buy in 4 years, cheap, a few weeks ago. I keep checking the add, watching my fund go up ……

I would have been better off buying the 200 shares of SWPPX on Wednesday instead of Tuesday. Other than that, all good.
Being retired, staying conservative wins the race. Will pull money out for the first time around the 15th. Actually looking forward to it. |

AT&T has taken a shit since May of this year from 32 down to 23. As a result of that, a nice dividend (probably from the current 8% down to 4% - still OK) and the upcoming Discovery merger, I bought a couple of hundred shares today. Blood in the streets and all that.
