350Z's 2007 I Fund Thread

[wv-girl]

You know that Old Ben Burntankle is a tough customer. The Big Boys are TWISTING his ARM (want a bailout), but I don't think he will UNCLE UP just yet!:worried:

He's just playing a part...doing what he is told. And boy did they hang him out to dry.--In front of God and everyone....:cheesy:

going to the S FUND...feeling that home builders and banks will skyrocket Monday on a cut...The big boys will be visting him over the weekend

Are You Sure? If you are I may join you, but I really think I'll wait for the Market to tell me when it's time!:worried:

You have ask yourself is the market going to sell off 300 points on the dow today. If so, the I would be a good play. If not, the S.

Big boys pushing the market down to get a rate cut. The little guy will suffer and sell at the bottom.

 

[GUCHI]

the I is down 2% now, how likely is it that it will make that up and possibly move into positive territory ?????? we have had 2 big down days already, is there more to come??? i'm considering putting the rest of my cash into stocks, or just wait till monday to see what happens. any comments ???

thanx and good luck

Please do not go by me. I think that the markets want a cut yesterday!! They will get one, the trick is that the markets have to close in deep red today to inspire Uncle Ben somemore.

Wow, Tsp.gov was locked up for my last minute IFT. Well I'm to blame for waiting for the last minute.

People have posted here that when the TSP website was too slow, they did their IFT by phone without a problem

Well, for now I'm all F-fund.

There's just too much volatility in equities right now. The markets are all emotion, with every little bit of bad news sending things into a spiral. Unfortunately, there seems to be an awful lot of bad news in the offing. So, when things calm down a bit I'll be back in I with a vengeance.

Buy when it's ugly. Ask Jim Cramer. Just not all at once.

At this point in time, from everything I've read, I honestly think we're looking at a recession sometime very soon.

 

[Jonathan]

Chemeng's spreadsheet has the I-fund down about $.36, after the +fv. Hopefully, this afternoon will see a bit of a run-up, and we'll end up with another fv.

I'm not all into the F-fund until Monday

 

[weatherweenie]

Going to be looking at a +FV if this rally holds.

Heh...would be nice if the rally would hold off until after 12:30 EDT

MSCI has the final tally as -3.1% for the EAFE.

Bloomberg has the iShares EAFE and the DJIA all over the map today, but are currently trending downward. The Dow is down about .7% from where it was at 12:36 EDT.

MSCI has the final tally as -3.1% for the EAFE.

That would equate to a whopping -74 cents + 34 cents FVC = -40 cents.

The last four Fridays have finished triple digit red. I don't know if the feds action will prevent it today. Could get ugly. Good luck to all.

 

[sdouglas3]

When does the Government black box buy programs kick in?

 

[jayhawker]

Bloomberg has the iShares EAFE and the DJIA all over the map today, but are currently trending downward. The Dow is down about .7% from where it was at 12:36 EDT.

According to 350Z, the cutoff time is 11:36 EDT.

I made note of these indexes at that time:

DJI was -1.10%
S&P500 was -.92%
EFA was -1.65%
