Market Surge Stalled

S.T.A.Y. Plus™ current position for Active portion of portfolio:  "BUY" 

In the past few weeks the market has been attempting to move up, however, the momentum has slowed so much that it has made some significant pull-backs. Both our "active" and "core" models have been predominantly in cash and in the past few days we have moved them to 95% cash. Although we are still in a "buy" position, it is very fragile and could easily cross over to a "sell". So far, today's market activity has been negative, which confirms our position of caution and may end up moving the signal to "sell". 

The overall "buy" or "sell" signal is important for those of you wanting guidance on your 401k account allocations. If / when we're in a "sell" position, our general advice is to change your allocation to something more conservative that has little or no exposure to equities (bonds are often a good alternative). We would be happy to review your options discuss reallocation with you.
