The DOW hits a new record today - 401Ks

Menzies

How are they doing?

I am a bit disappointed as my 401K is only up 0.39% on the year.

Though I suppose that is reflective of the overall market year to date.

My retirement boat fund is in the doldrums!

grady30wa

Up 1.2% YTD, but I had liquidated everything in early January before the small correction, and then didn't reinvest until January 21. I also kept 50% out of the market sitting in a money market fund

Tarponator

Up 3% YTD.

Tarpon65

A measly .47

King_Me

Up 9.65 YTD

Fish Haid

15.4% YTD

I was up about 25% a month ago.

Waiting for earnings reports on two significant positions this afternoon (MXWL and AKAM).

UP 47% in last 13 months!

DANG!!! This year? Nice!

My 401k is up a measly .24%... My Scottrade account however is up almost 70% for the year. If only I could have had as much money invested in that as I do in my 401k....:willynilly

Quailhunter

Mine is at .50 right now.

As a point of reference, the S&P 500 is up 2.5% YTD.

This is great for middle class and low income people. Dow is unrelated to the economy.. but hey the rich people will get rich and Obama and Biden will bank the big $$$ from it.

YTD 11.3%.

Many answers can be found by studying the decline and failure of the Roman Empire.

Both came in GREEN! AKAM up 6% since yesterday's post and MXWL up 10%. Not my only positions of course, but my two largest.

RGR reports next week.

bottom feeder

up 1.6 as of today

Holt

.87%. But I think that may not be current. I went to change some things and the site was down...great! Small Cap fund is bringing me down, wanted to rebalance.
