AFTER PARKING MOST OF MY NEST EGG IN VERY CONSERVATIVE INVESTMENT ACCOUNTS THERE WASN'T MUCH TO WRITE ABOUT. TPCI IS BACK WITH SOME THOUGHTS AND IDEAS, OTHER THAN INVESTMENT IDEAS, TO SHARE WITH CANADIAN BOOMERS, RETIREES AND SNOWBIRDS.

So Goes January...

So goes the rest of the year...at least 72% of the time, when the markets rise in January it continues throughout the year...or at least, so they say.

Last month, the TSX and the DOW were both up, the TSX 4.16%, the DOW 3.40%

My Canadian Bond Fund holdings, which are up, but just a tick, finally worked against me in January as my stuff was up only 1.88%.  That's the way it is.  Equities up, Bonds either down or flat at best. That being said, I'm way up since I made the switch last June.  No regrets!
