Interesting analysis of pending market bubble correction

I'm interested to see the feedback on this one. I doubt Obama and the fed would let it happen before the midterm elections, but some shite is out of their control. What's the money board guru's think. I have slowly been allocating more into cash and PM's as the market has risen, but not too much so.

I've been putting in my usual amount, but any excess investing funds have been going into cash since it hit about 14,800. Yeah, I've missed out on a little more return, but we are due for at least a 10% correction. Still up about 30% on the year overall. I'm about 70-75/25-30 stock v. cash/pm/reverse index funds probably won't get more than 40% into non-stock allocation.

Short term I am bullish (next one year). I think the worst is to come after the mid terms. I don't see how we can't have a major correction if not a crash in the next few years as QE is tapered. What's your opinion. I have some cash now I'm trying to decide what to do with.

And I haven't seen the frenzied buying by joe six pack and other amateur speculators you usually see at the top of a bubble.

I've also been allocating more into blue chip dividend paying funds/stocks. MO, XOM, COKE etc. Vanguard dividend growth.

I have given up on trying to pick stocks. I only have a little bit that I allocate to speculative stock picks. Win some lose some.

agree with Warren Buffett: I don't know which direction the next 1,000 point move on the Dow Jones will be but I'm certain I know which direction the next 15,000 point move will be. I anticipate a 10-15% correction at some point but I've been predicting that for over a year now so I can honestly say, I don't know what's going to happen or when.

This is 100% true and I'm not into trying to time the market. My "set montly/yearly" investments are still going into the market. I guess what I'm holding out are what I consider my speculation money. It's just that I'm getting too much of it that I hate to keep in in MM accounts or CD's. But I like having a chunk to take my swings when the market does tank. I did this before 2008 and have been able to triple my net worth in the years since. My goals are long term so I don't sweat short term loses at all.

Any sugggestions on what I should do with the money I have put back or a max percentage I should have in cash. I don't include my real estate/land holdings in the percentages except for the REIT's.

The obvious answer is bitcoin.

Seriously, I don't make recommendations. Or at least, I try to avoid doing that.

If someone asks me about a specific stock, I enjoy analyzing that stock and then sometimes sharing what I learned about it. But that's about as far as I will go.

said the Dow Industrials could still rally another 4% or so first, to a high around 17150

Don't trust forecasts with four digit precision.

Back to my original question...not trying to "time" the market, just wondering is there a different strategy to apply AFTER the bottom falls out. Do you hesitate then start buying stuff cheap or dive in right away? What is "typically" the best sector to start buying into after a crash?

What service are you using? Scottrade, ETrade, Schwab?
