2,750 Tuesday – S&P 500 Hits it’s Next Benchmark

2,750 already? It was only September when we got over 2,500 so another 10% in 4 months is a 30% annualized pace for the senior index.  Back on 9/26, I asked " Is S&P 2,500 the Market’s Waterloo? "  and clearly it has not been, with barely a down day since, punctuated by this year's crazy kick-off that's taking us 75 points higher (3%) for the year, so far. Of course that's nothing compared to what's going on with our GreenCoins (GRE), which blasted up another 100% this morning on heavy volume , despite the sell-off in some of the more popular crypto-currencies.    That's up 1,000% from our Dec 3rd call to buy the currency , where we guaranteed we'd accept them at 0.00044 as payment for 2018 Annual Memberships.  We even tweeted that one out the same day – so there was ample chance to get in on the fun.     And why shouldn't we be able to make 1,000% in a month?  That's the new market paradigm these days when, as I predicted on November 29th, at this pace " We Will All Be Billionaires ."  The next day (11/30) we analyzed the Dow in " 24,000 Thursday – Dow Continues Its Insane March Higher " and now the Dow is at 25,300, up 5.4% in 6 weeks.  Of course, we didn't think it was sustainable and we cashed out our protfolio positions into the holiday and, since last Monday, we've been slowly building them back up – since this rally seems to be showing no signs of slowing down. While I'd much rather see a good correction before we jump in and start buying again, we also don't want to get left behind in a good rally so we're picking up values where we can – though there aren't many value stocks left these days!    Not only is the S&P testing the 2,750 line but the Nasdaq 100 ( /NQ ) Futures are just under 6,700 – and that's up 10% since October!  We're using the Nasdaq's ultra-short ETF (SQQQ) as our primary hedge at the moment as we really can't believe earnings are going to live up to the hype but it's not really about earnings – it's about the new tax law and what it can drop to the bottom line .   IN PROGRESS  

2,750 already?

It was only September when we got over 2,500 so another 10% in 4 months is a 30% annualized pace for the senior index.  Back on 9/26, I asked "Is S&P 2,500 the Market’s Waterloo?"  and clearly it has not been, with barely a down day since, punctuated by this year's crazy kick-off that's taking us 75 points higher (3%) for the year, so far.
