PP End of Year Predictions

Post by Tom »

We have two and a half months left to the year.  Any predictions on where the PP will stand come end of year?

I'm going to stick my neck out and optimistically gamble that after a lackluster and then somewhat bumpy year it will still end up slightly positive in the 1-2% range.

We're not really going to all of this trouble for a 1-2% gain, are we?

You could make a prediction, use a different strategy or say nothing you know.  It's not that much trouble and the market hasn't been great as a whole this year, not just the PP and it's one freaking year.  This thread isn't meant to devolve into the same garbage.  Sorry if I'm being rude, it's just getting tiresome.

I have been in for less than a year, but stocks have been far and away my worst performing asset, so I'm grateful for the diversification.

AMEN!

I'll guess zero.
