ok today has scared me. I'm always changing my thesis, and today suggests I have been bullish and wrong. Need to rethink my 'returning to normal' thesis.
In the meantime I sold a ton of stocks today. I am materially undersweight stonks compared to my normal 65% stock weighting.

interesting fact tho - even down 4% today, the market is UP over the last 5 trading days.

Having a good day.
The ETF that runs counter to the NASDAQ (somehow returns twice what NASDAQ does in the opposite) up over 9.5% today.

C'mon now agip, you really gonna stampede with the herd? When it bounces back tomorrow will you buy a ton of stocks? "Be greedy when others are fearful".

could be just a roiling volatility day.
The thing is, it seems that the way the trends have been working the last few weeks, once a trend starts (either up or down), it continues for a few days. I find that I've often made a good call as to the direction, but I do it too soon. With that in mind, I wouldn't be surprised to see a couple more days of slower selling before it resumes climb up.

Interested to see what happens tomorrow.
Bounce back?
Continued slide?
Something else?
certainly retail investors will make panic sales at the open tomorrow. They usually do after a bad day like today.
problem here is that we will have echo sales from this mini-crash for a week or two, then we will walk into the normal pre-earnings season downturn...could be a very rough few weeks we're facing.
An exception is sept 30...that's the next inflation report. If it comes in cool that could be good for the markets.

it's true I'm not a good market timer and I probably should not mess around like this.

Won't the Sept inflation report come out about a month from now?
