It is time to buy!

If you have been following my blog you would have reduced you market positions on November 8, 2010. On the Saturday before I made the call to reduce holdings in the market. On 11/08/2010 the NASDAQ closed at 2580. Today the NASDAQ closed at 2357. I am going to assume you would have made some money in a money market fund.

I have gone from a 50 percent cash position to a 130 percent long position. (Symbol TNA but in limited portions).

Ihe 2011 portfolio is 1 percent behind the S&P 500 index as of this long Easter weekend. One percent is not a huge lead. The portfolio has 20 percent global stock funds which have not done well this year. The Westcore Select fund is up a nice 11.3 % YTD!

The Closed End Fund Portfolio

The Closed End Fund Portfolio
The closed end portfolio is a list of what I believe to be the best value in closed end funds at this time. Having never lost money in a closed end fund I find them more attractive as I approach retirement. At this time I am short term bearish on the market and would wait for a market dip to add new money.
