Market Update for Saturday February 25, 2017
  • The Dow closed at a record high for 11 days in a row!!! 
  • Sentiment via my CPC and 2cs charts is getting extreme
  • It is nice that when you take profits you can get up to 2.38% in CDs (See CD Rate Survey) and 1.25% in savings (See Savings Account Rate Survey)

This chart shows closing values for the markets by day.  Note how I highlight the numbers if they made a new record high.  
Led by the Nasdaq, this chart shows the markets are up between 2.76% and 8.59% YTD:

Long-term Dow & S&P500 charts:


The Russell 2000 small cap index is up over 46% in just over a year.  
These two short-term timing charts suggest caution now.
Do you have a list of stocks and ETFs you will use new cash or profit taking dollars for buying any major declines?

Some of the stocks I bought back a year ago when we had the last double digit decline (like FDX & LRCX) have done VERY well and I've taken profits to lock in huge gains.
