it all depends on interest rates... if the rate on your mortgage is higher than what your making in the market then the house is a better place to put your cash... right now it is an especially hard time to decide between the two.. returns and rates are about eequal right now... personally if it was close i would always default to the mortgage... the logic behind this is that everyone NEEDs shelter....
with that wing said, cat... me and you invest in similar ways... my retirement account is + 5.3% right now... my " trading account" is up about 300% right now, just have to sell apple before it tanks, should that happen....
