Frizz B.,
You have stumbled onto something BIG, really BIG. By comparing the C to the S fund, and moving your savingsto the fund likely to narrow the gap.When I read that your moves have yielded 6%+ for this year,(while mine are struggeling tostay possitive), I opened up my spreadsheet skills. Here's what I did/found:
I see some problems comparing C with the S fund, because when one goes up or down the other usually does as well. So I calculated out some columns to compare the C,S & I funds to the constant and steady G fund using a % instead of hard numbers (C to S 100 or lower, S to C 115 or higher)
I found that a 13% gain could have been made from Jan02 through April this year.
For example: On Jan 28 and 29th my calcultionsindicated that all three funds indicated a GET IN date
C at 115%, F at 126% and I at 127% over the G fund.
Then get out dates around Feb11th with
C at 118%, F at 129% & I at 130%
Followed by the next get in date of Feb23 with
C at 116% andS at 127%. (Notice a slight upward trend)
I figure in a bull market the range over the G fund will keep increasing, but since March the range is comming back down, for example on Mar24 the C fund was just 111% over the G fund, then increased to 117%by April05, and is currently at 114% over G. -
