the bullish movement some of us in this forum caught from its start, in late March.

I learned a great lesson from that guy when in 2020 he spoke (the only one to do so, at least among the financial analysts whose free articles I used to read back then) about a V-shape recovery from the covid-crisis market

 

bottom. At that time I was believing in a W-shape recovery and I took four months more or less, starting from the point of the market bottom, to understand he was right. The bullish trend continuation that followed was

 

spectacular and I enjoyed it very much. So, thanks to him for opening my mind.

Yes as I said in March we could see a rally back to new highs as the market was oversold and may even go a little over.  We have seen that rally now but the market is very unhealthy now.  Bull markets go up and down not straight up in the bigger time frame.  For only the 2nd time since 1994 we have seen 8 straight weeks of gains on the SP500.  Only 5 times we have seen 9 weeks, never more than that.  Even 1998-1999 we saw volatility and were not seeing that meaning that a large crack is going to happen soon.  Not saying we won't go back up its just that this is getting way overdone here and to get it back to healthy we need to see some up and down!!

you know what, I think it's possible that the spx gets to 9,000 before the year is over. Then I will put my helmet on and will prepare myself for the market drop, that should happen next year.

Since I am too old to trade short term, I plan to incubate my SPX500 holdings for couple of years or more. My profits are short term, and I will wait for minimum 1 year to sell. I hate short term cap gains more than anything else. If market dips, there is automatic reinvestment of dividends.
