I would think it is a cookie setting on your system. Try deleting your cookies then responding in a new window. Also try holding down the ctrl-key and hitting the browser's refresh button at the same time. It will clear your system's cache.
They [the systems] are making adjustments. FYI, the system that made the largest gain in 2007 was the sentiment survey, and it made only 16 transfers all year. I don't know how it will turn out, but I still believe the systems will be able to beat the market with 24 trades a year if it comes to that. they will just have to approach things from a different time frame.
They will also continue to post the old active moves for those using IRA and personal accounts to trade the SPY, VXF, AGG, and EFA.
Looks a little overextended, and with rate cuts priced in, we could see a short-term pullback. But if we are in fact going to see a recession it should be a part of any diversified account looking out more than a couple of weeks.

So, is three the magic number now. I plan to stick to three per month.
It is confusing. This came from the TSP web site.
the Agency likely will amend its regulations (via a separate publication in the Federal Register) to permit two interfund transfers (account rebalancings) per calendar month with subsequent unlimited interfund transfers into the G Fund
The way I read it, you get 2 trades per month with F,C,S,I and the
L Fund and one safety move to the G Fund.

if your 1st or second move is in to G, any %, thats considered one of your first two moves. And I still think you can have unlimited safety moves into G after the first two

Re: ask tom/ Adminisration fees, Management fees, and Trading Costs.
Hi Tom,
Love your site been a loyal fan for 6 years now. Thanks a billion. I love the tsp and your site and it has me very interested in investing now.
Question#1- Administration fees, management fees and trading costs. How much are we being charged for each of these?
I've noticed that the TSP site talks a lot about Adminstration fees being so low (.30 per $1000 for 2006). With the talk of trading costs going up I have not seen a change in admistration fees.
I've researched this for year and at first thought we were not recieving dividends. But after lots of more research I see we are recieving them but our fees are eating them up. I've found there are 3 different fees we are being charged for our TSP accounts- Admistration fees, Management fees, and trading costs.
For 2006 I've calculated the fees for the I fund to be about $20+ per $1000 invested.
Q#2 -Have you come across any statements or literature to support or dismiss that we are being charged 3 different fees for our accounts?
Thank for all you've done I've got at least 30 people looking at your site daily.

Hi Butch. I don't have anything concrete on the fee structure (admin, management, trading). This may be a question for show-me who have been researching it a lot more. You can probably find them here ... http://www.tsptalk.com/mb/forumdisplay.php?f=103
Thanks for spreading the word!

Tom, Problem is with getting the site to open and also in the message board area. Could be a problem with the servers on my end being overloaded for some reason. Oh well, thanks for answering. I tried deleting my favorites link and adding it back but that didn't make any difference. It does seem to be better in the last hour or so. I'll keep trying.
