[350zCommTech]

MSCI EAFE = 5.09% or

Up 68 cents, including a 41 cent +FVC.

 

[easting]

I'm liking this. Now if we can just get 2 more days just like this....

 

[DCguy]

so the market's closed now. How did it do?

 

[Minnow]

MSFT beat... hmmmm

will we retest the lows before or after FOMC?

are the currency markets giving us at least a fuzzy picture of the future?

 

[DCguy]

I'm guessing we will see more green tomorrow. msft did very well and bargain hunters are still out there

So far it looks like I might have guessed wrong. Most after hour earnings were good. At the moment, the currency markets are looking good for tonight.

We probably won't test the lows until after the FOMC meeting, imo.

 

[Minnow]

I had S&P 1370 marked as my "jumping in" point. Looks like futures will go past that.

Course with my luck, if I had jumped in, tomorrow would be a pump and dump profit taking session.

When you have key reversals like yesterday, key refers towards the weight of the pattern - rarely are the lows tested. The advantage of the McClellan Oscillator is helping me decide if the break of the NYAD 200 day EMA will see any follow through to the downside. Right now it is suggesting that it is unlikely that we'll see a trend develope in the downward direction. The CO NYSE breadth MCO has contained its bottoms above bottoms structure in the face of this latest decline - a climactic purge and not the beginning of a trend bear market.

Jan 24 (Reuters) - Women's apparel retailer Cache Inc (CACH.O: Quote, Profile, Research) said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Brian Woolf has resigned for personal reasons, effective immediately.

Hmm what could be wrong with import cheap clothes and selling them at high prices be wrong

CACH is only down 60% in the last year.

Cache board member Andrew Saul is the Chairman of the TSP board.

I hope you are right, but CNBC said today's volume was very light. Any suggestions?

Up 80 cents. They threw in a 12 +FV.

Un #$%$%%^# believable. Yesterday's +FV should have been 83 cents, instead of 41. The 27 cent +FV on Tuesday was also BS!!!!!

They must have been watching me and Ebb.

 

[rob10000]

I agree, they must be laughing to themselves every time they spoil our plans. Of course it doesn't affect the buy and holders, but now they know how to take advantage of clearly telegraphed I fund moves to discourage us from doing it in the first place. I feel whipped. Now, when I consider moving in or out, I have to consider if they are going to spank me again if I move with the herd..

 

[350zCommTech]

You can bet one or more of them are subscribers to all of the premium services and watching our moves, no way to stop that. Too bad we can't distribute targeted disinformation the same way politicians do.

How about a concerted effort to pull all our money out of the I fund and not trade it at all. I can make more money in C or S and not have to deal with this BS.

I think I'm done with the I fund.

I think I'm done with the I fund.

I don't think you are because you're addicted to the rush.

350, I'm about a week ahead of you. I bailed to the C & S last week. It looked like a good move until that .80 today. I just can't take the FV TIHS anymore. I'm just hoping this move up isn't a short term thing before the hammer drops again!

 

[Robo5555]

Do we have another plus fv?

 

[GGal]

I can't believe ya'll actually think that anyone is watching moves and predictions on this board and manipulating the FV accordingly.

Logged IP's would provide interesting data to research. Never really noticed "that" many users online at any one time. Not saying it isn't so, but this board seems to have a very select group of followers. I usually lurk instead of signing in, keeps me out of trouble But I do like to take the conversations back to work, and most everyone looks at me like I'm speaking Dutch or something, I'm around 50 to a couple of hundred people on any given day with only one or two takers for conversation about the TSP.

It's hard to pass on the rush of the I. Was burned good two years ago in C before I half way understood what was going on. Made a decent exit from I a while ago into G and just been sitting there watching the chaos since. Dropped my contributions to matching only from 25%, worried about where the money Bush is printing is coming from (G fund?). Use to feel secure, but am not second guessing anything ATM. Refund? I won't qualify, and I'm a single parent and a 5 year 41 day Federal Service exit plan.

Starting a "Walnut" tree farm this year with the percentage pulled out. I need the income tax deductions more than I need the (earnings?) right now. Anything left over will go into a Roth unless the FV $hit stops.

Sorry 350, I don't have my own account talk (yet)

 

[Corvette]

WOW!

Nikkei up 4.0%
AORD up 5.0%
