... the Fed and Alcoa and whatever else the big money thought was relevant spoiled it.
10 years ago, I would've been a basket case. Instead, the last few days I was hoping for a blowoff so I could put what little remaining cash I had to work. Perhaps sometime this month.
Patience is not one of my virtues.

Same here, I thought maybe I'd finally get fully invested. Oh well, the suspense continues.

You guys were saying...?
Starting to feel like some opportunities out there. I've been eyeing the oil companies today myself...

Ummmm, yes, as I was saying ... This is starting to feel a little like 2010-2011.
Problem is, the things that are falling the most, I'm all set on. How about JNJ in the low 90's or PG in the low 70's? All my REITs are going up and I could use some more of them.
I hate periods like this, not much is a screaming bargain but the seesaw makes you hesitant to commit more money thinking you'll get a better deal tomorrow.

I pulled the trigger today. After a lot of back & forth debating between KMI and CVX, I ended up picking CVX. Cant argue with the 3.7% yield on CVX. Would love to buy KMI as well, but Im already at a full 5% position. Upped my CVX to 3% of portfolio.
