It's October next week
Lets hope depressed stocks and big dividends put a floor under this capitulation.

Teach you to go pump it on the forum, belg... you know you are probably attracting a big following these days, now that you're one of the few people on ST that can still be followed IN rather than OUT. Wasn't me though.

I actually did buy a few things this week. The broker said "you're brave", so that made me happy. I think he has said that to me about 3 or 4 times over the years, and every time, when I looked back, I wished I'd bought more...
Old habits die hard though. When it comes to investing, patterns only seem to form in time to be contradicted. Most of my cash still stayed in the bank.

I didn't mean to imply that most of my money was in the bank - it is pretty much back in balance for now - not overweight or underweight too much at all, although I'm having yet another dilemma over whether to reduce NZ property trusts. It was just that, on past history, the "you're brave" comment suggests that if I truly was brave, I would go overweight equities for now.
However, on consideration, I will have to leave that to you, Belg. I'd rather stay married.

I'll admit to taking a few (emphasis on a few) out @ 81 (MHI) to top up my existing holding - especialy with the dividend record date today

The upside down pyramids of Auckland must be becoming quite a tourist attraction.

Water- My pryamid is the right way up - my original buy price is a lot lower.

I nice easy read to understand the comparisions of 2 secular bear cycles on the SPX.... the 1966 - 1982 and the 2000 - 20?? and its cyclic bull and bear cycles within those 2 secular cycles. ,,,
...so...is this latest (2009 -201?) SPX cyclic bull market dead??? Adam Hamilton reckons not yet (Note this article was written 5 months ago)

However John Hussman thinks differently...also look half-way down his article ...there is a colourful box of statistics on the past duration time periods of cyclic bulls and the percentage increase of each...Ok the Bull duration is about average but the percentage increase was above average...so maybe the Bull is dying (Note this article was written 6 months ago)
