    How Far Are You From "Breaking Even"?

    imported post Rod, For this year, I'm in the green again (1.09%). Two weeks ago I pulled out and avoided the recent 5%(ish) drop. Which brings up an interesting topic. * I don't understand the stubbornness with holding onto a sinking ship. When I see that I've made a mistake, I move to the...

    On Travel 7/23 thru 7/30

    imported post Responding to both Rolo and Mlk_Man "To answer the question, I would stick with an S/C mix, heavier in S." Why the S fund over C? My calculations are indicating that the C fund will continue to perform better than the S fund for a few more days, maybe 5-10. (as it has been...

    Transfer 4/28/04 for 4/29/04

    imported post I think the C and S will drop 1 more percent before rising again. By compairing these fundpercentages to the steady G fund, Ihave been noticing a down ward trend with C and S (not the I fund), and I see both C& Sat their last low, so I expect 1 more downward percent. The I fund...

    Why F?

    imported post Tthis is what I have noticed quite a few times. I have always felt fond of the F fund, but in 2004 it has burnt me a few times. Sometimes, when the C,S & I funds are dropping, the F will go up. G F C S I 1-Aug-03 10.05 9.63 10.19 10.56 10.42 4-Aug-03 10.06 9.66 10.22 10.51...
