I have been distracted a lot the last few weeks and not following anything closely. Just looked today and saw my accounts were very close to where I projected thwm to be by the end of the year and thats with only 1/3 of the contributions i was planing to make made so far. Its very unlikely I will hit my investing goals for the year being im only at 1/3rd and its already May and im will probably make nearly 1/3 less tahn i did last year if not even less.

Once again I have little idea what driving the markets. Inflation is higher than expected and got to continue to climb with high energy cost. Seems like markets would be cooling down and valuations geting more reasonable. Maybe im missing something or its fear of missing out.

Possibly just figuring the government will.put more money and stimulus into the economy and inflation prices further maybe so best to invest and stay in and ride the wave thinking maybe?

Its a toss up for me on taking some profits and buying back in after a correction that seems impossible not to be coming. But I waited 4 years thinking the same thing before.

I figured maybe some financial talking may be a better way to kill time compared to some complaining about maga and a school system.

My investments have been outstanding these past few months. I havent made any contributions for several years, havent needed too.
