Investment plan adjustment: I just reduced our other IRAs,
larger one I reduced and it is now 35% in stocks. I took all the
inventory from 3,700s to current prices and sold it. I like doing
this when markets are strong because with mutual funds, prices are
secured at the close. I don't want to wait for markets to reverse
because when it does, it will likely go down faster than it went
up. I like selling some with wind at my back.
New allocation:
10% Nasdaq 100
5% IWM
8% S&P 500
12% TRowe Health sciences for a total of 35%. A bit more
conservative with the health sciences in there. Change will apply
at the close.
I have a relatively smaller one that I also reduced to 40% in
stocks, same thing, took all the lower inventory and sell on close.
Here is that allocation:
10% S&P 500
30% TRowe Health Sciences
a 73s RSI long term here is just incredible to me given the
backdrop we are in. If we go higher and hit some other levels, I
may do some more. At least I can go take my week off at the end of
the month now and not be concerned what markets are doing. My
trading account will be in cash as well. I hit a new high again
there today, may even exit early if a big woosh happens somewhere
over the next week.
I really feel fortunate to be able to act now and know we will
be ok no matter which way things go over the remainder of the
year.
