Why I Fund what about the FV here. I asking anyone now people are skeptic of S or C Fund

The Dow is up 280 at the moment. If it can hold here, up to the deadline, there will be less chance of a +FV. If there is one, it will be minimal. If the Fed disappoints, we'll get a huge -FV.

I fund is up around 1.5% at the moment(just using my eyeballs, no spreadsheet here). It's lagging.

Welcome Skoobydo:D

Yeah I know what it's like to try and figure these guys cryptic messages out..:p

They are saying where they will be putting the InterFund Transfer (IFT) to by the Close of TSP business (COB)..Which is 12:00pm Eastern time..you have to make that time or before in order to be in a particular TSP fund you want for the following day for the start of the Stock market day..

As an example: I just made my IFT to G fund and it will be effective tomorrow..What I did yesterday or where I've been since yesterday's COB I'm into it for today and if i didn't change by COB today, I would stay in that last fund until I change it.

Until you get I think 10 posts to your name here, then the Admins will give you a TSP tracker account to track your progress..However, the way things are going with the TSP bastards screwing with our ability to IFT more than twice a month, I expect the Tracker to become real stagnant.


Good luck, hope this helps

That helps some...so what becomes of the contribution allocations? Are the same percents done for those of the IFTs? That's how mine is right now. Altough I don't IFT nearly as much as everyone else.

Skooby - your contributions are always placed in the fund(s) you determine and stay there - until you do an IFT. For example, my allocations go to the G fund and sit there until I make an IFT. So if $500 goes to my G fund through a payroll contribution, it stays there until I make my first IFT. So let's say 5 days later I do an IFT to 50% C and 50% S, all my funds, including the $500 just allocated to my G fund get transfered there.

These days it's good not to make many IFTs - got some of us in trouble....:mad:

OK - that makes 2 of us which is fine. The luck of the Irish is on our side so this has to be fast. The Irish tales always end bad so if you see the ship sinking blame the English. - Good Luck !!!!!

Now watch my gut feeling about an intraday/end of day sell-the-news tank be right...grrrrr:notrust:

We all knew that the cut is already figured into the market. This morning upswing=traders able to take advantage of it...profit taking this afternoon. If the F fund drops as well back below 12.07 I will really be ticked off.:(

Hope the I fund ends positive tomorrow, I'll take a quick profit and get out.

That was another reason to go I fund. A big sell-off on the Fed gives us a big cushion for tomorrow.

Oh yes this is a one day trip in the Ireland Fund and the market did just drop 40 again Z is right lots of resistance at 290. Right now 248 but we won't lose today we can't because if we do I'm packing my bags and moving to the G Fund.
