Joe Plumber for President!

-

I’m sorry I had to, that one is just to easy. Since Joe was the topic of most of the debate tonight I figured I would include a video that I found of Joe. Heck let’s make Joe President! Check it out, then let me know what you think. What Joe is talking about is exactly what my last video was about in the last presidential debate. This will have an impact on 401k investing, because it will affect the economy. $250,000/year is still not that much money for running a business. There are men with lawn mowing business that make more than $250K but paying for business expenses takes much of that. And why is it that politicians make up to $250K/year but they live a lifestyle that requires greater than $2 mill/year to sustain? Because they live by the rules of the rich. You can learn a little bit about the rules of the rich by reading material from Robert Kiyosaki. They look poor on paper so they pay little taxes. Those small business owners, the middle class, the rich, and the big corporations pay the most taxes. The politicians don’t know much about paying taxes, and living in the real world. If taxes are raised (and I’m not totally for sure that either candidate will actually lower taxes), then those that are paying the most taxes will be suffocated for growing economic prosperity for our country which means falling 401k retirement accounts. Higher taxes makes investing more difficult, and what about the baby boomers who have to start pulling money out of their retirement accounts to live on, are they going to be taxes more on their life line? Hmmm, broken promises scare me, remember every President has broken their promises. The Office is tough a place to be, and I think that it’s not possible to do the things that either candidate wants to do. I truly feel that the markets and that capitalism is the way to get our problems solved so we need to make good decisions that will govern and regulate the system, and cut unnecessary spending. That way I don’t have to worry about what was promised that end the end was not delivered.

401k Investing Watching the Market For Our Time To Get In or Stay Out

-

Watch the 401k investing video here for a follow up to what we talked about the day before. There are very exciting times, however we must be VERY careful. If you are conservative then it’s easy, you are staying out and waiting for a more conservative time to get in because all the longer term conditions point to the awareness that the markets are still biased to the downside.

Is it time to invest my 401k or is this a Bear Rally?

-

401k investing can be quite confusing for a new investor. Today we are going to make some sense of this big bad bear stock market. Is it time to invest your 401K? Or will this market keep going down? Here is the thing that you have got to realize. No one has got it all figured out, that is why there are the bears and the bulls. So analyzing the markets with good sound technical analysis principles will yield favorable results. We not only teach our students how to use the tools, but also how to “see” the markets, and how the move, how they behave. We are going through classical behaviors now at this time. Those behaviors have been measured throughout history using statistical analysis and we have probabilities that we use for each situation. We also have specific thresholds that tell us when those probable situations don’t work out resulting in very small losses when we are wrong and very large profits when the markets behave just as they always have done.

-

Right now is a very sensitive time. Neither in this video or on any of our blog posts do we ever give trading advice because we are doers and teachers not advice givers. With that said an investor has to determine the amount of risk that he or she is willing to take. If you are fresh out of college or you have many more years ahead of you before retirement then you may want to take on more risk, be more aggressive in you investment strategy. If you are close to retirement you may want to be more conservative and take more reliable signals with much more confirmation ensuring success with the only giving up some profits for that security.

-

The following video shows an analysis of the market and how we have already profited by managing our 401k account to more advanced means. However for those conservative investors we point out that it may take a little while for the system to come down and the Volatility index to come down.

The Markets Are Behaving Like They Are Bottoming

-

It looks like a bottom may be here, but remember we don’t speculate, we observe and let the markets tell us that we have found a bottom. It depends on what comes out over the weekend but we may be looking at a significant move next week.

-

We should then test the bottom, if the bottom cannot be broken then we may have a confirmation that we are indeed at a bottom. We are watching and waiting to see if will be time to invest.

Do I Invest In My 401k Now? How Do I Learn How To Invest & Manage My 401k

-

I’ve been getting a lot of questions from people asking me if it is time to invest their 401k? For those of you who have gotten out of the markets and are now looking for a time to get it, THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO GET IN. As investors we only get into the markets when they are trending up. We do not know how deep this recession will go. The worst advice given (not that I am giving investing advice, because I don’t do that), is that you should buy on the way down. If you want a guaranteed way to lose money, then do just that. Until then I’m going to wait until the bottom forms, and until I get a confirmed uptrend, and then I go all in. I will make more rate of return on my investment than those guys by magnitudes more.

-

If you are still in the markets and you are down 30-40%, I can’t tell you or advise you what to do, but wouldn’t it be a shame to move money when you find out that we are are the bottom? If you move anything, you will realize those losses, meaning that you will actually lose your investment. You account actually has owns shares of an asset. As long as you don’t sell those shares you own something. Now you are at that point that you could wait it out. The markets have ALWAYS come back, it just would have been nice to keep all the profits from the end of last year, and been able to multiply them by getting out then (as I alerted my students via my subscription blog), and investing after we find a bottom.

Well I got a good look at some Presidential Candidates, and I do believe I have made my choice, but I do want to hear more from them as the debates continue. Look it’s pretty simply for me at this point. It all comes down to the economy, and who has got the best plan for fixing social security and the Medicare entitlement programs. Who is going to have the biggest affect on my money (on every American’s pocketbook). Look today’s market drop was due to the realization by a lot of really smart, savvy people that the 700 Bn dollar bailout is not enough to fix our current problem. Yes it helped, and it may have prevented some catastrophic events. But is it over? No, and we are going to have to foot the bill. So it comes down to the economy and taxes. You know business owners are really good at weathering the storm.. It’s what we do. Waiting 4 hrs is nothing to a business owner. They just lay people off, and go into preservation mode and weather the storm. Does that help you or me? No, that hurts the the Americans. Raising our taxes is only going to choke the chicken that is suffering from asthma. We can’t afford any more, government is getting to big. Have we forgotten what our founding fathers fought so hard for? I’m scared that we get this big government in place that has the ability to become a big tyrant, and although our great candidates would never do such a thing, once it’s established and many years down the road, who will be the cat that strolls in to take that opportunity to become the world’s scariest tyrant? I know this is a pretty heated subject, thanks for entertaining my ramblings until know, if you want some more abuse watch the 30 minute video below.

To kick things off I would like to go over the government’s proposed $700 Billion Dollar Bailout plan.
I’ve been a little uneasy about rushing into this whole bailout band aide. First of all it is a very complex situation that we have gotten ourselves in, and I really don’t have a lot of faith that our politicians can come up with a plan that will miraculously fix things over a weekend. Come on, give me a break! Unless you hand this thing off to guys like Greenspan and Buffet and let them come up with the savviest way to care of each area of concern then I might feel a little better about it.

-

I would like to see a specific detailed plan illustrating what exactly the money is going to, 50 Billion for Part A of the plan, 100 Billion for part B, 10 Billion for part C, and so on. Right now as it stands some savvy rich people will find lawful loop holes to take large portions of that money and run. Making the rich richer and not solving anything, and that is the real reason why the Republicans shot it down, it’s not that they oppose the bailout, the oppose the manner in which the Democrats want to spend the money.

-

A bailout will happen, we need it to happen. What is more important is the effectiveness of the bailout. You can’t just throw money at it, it has to do done in the most effective way. Then the perception of Wall Street has to be that it will work otherwise we will continue the down slide. The video below illustrates a little bit of what is going on. Watch it and then let me know what you think about the bailout by the commenting below.
