As we mentioned at the first of the month, October has a way of creating a ruckus! This October is no different….
The Bad
It has been bumpy ride, but at this point our test and re-test theme seems in tact…
We are still a bit surprised about not being surprised on this….
The Good
This is why we are conservative by nature and as a firm…..
Earnings are coming in good….
Reinvestments are being made at better prices …
We are almost finished with October and into a “historically” a good time of the year…
We are watching, monitoring, and using this movement to get a good feel of our allocations…. and our comfort zones….
Things can change for the better rather quickly…just saying!
Travels
Tomorrow and Friday are travel days, but watch for a super post on Friday from the road concerning the Vault and a theft…
Have a Great “Bumpy October” Day!

Candid Market Expectations – VERY Short Term – Now We are Prepared!
We shy away from making market prognostications as rarely do markets do what most think will happen.
This time, due to the recent movements we are straying from our safe place in order to give you a heads up on our best and most likely very short term market movement that may be coming.
For the record we hope we are wrong, but feel we wanted to give you a heads up on our thoughts – again this is VERY SHORT TERM (unlike us to talk about it) and we will likely not mention it much as, short term to us is usually three years or more ….
Market Expectations – VERY SHORT TERM
We feel is it very likely we will go back and test our recent lows – there are a ton of crazy reasons why this happens, and in our chart we have marked in green arrows prior tests along with our expectations of our next test.
It’s possible we will go farther down than the prior or maybe not as far – either way, it is VERY likely we will go back for a re-test.
Longer term – will not matter at all, just like turbulence on your flight!
Let’s all watch – just like Eagle Scouts’ motto – Now we are prepared!
Have a Great “Ready for the Re-test” Day!
