BamaAF's Account Talk

[DreamboatAnnie]

As for what UQ said, you could also view it as when the rumor leaks out it affects price based on how market interprets that rumor as good or bad for stocks/market. By the time the actual news gets announced, the stock market price has already taken that "news" into account and would be fairly priced--- old news to the market. However, if the actual news that comes out differs from what the market expected, watch out!

I still tend to think you should see an uptick if all earnings numbers are a beat because you don't know until it comes out...well at least its not publicly/widely known. But, that said, I have seen that Grok Trade guy does not like to buy before earnings. I think he may think that the market insiders already know and have made their moves.

In the case of Apple, they did beat on many metrics, but as WW reported, it did not beat on the number of iPhones sold and apparently the market did not like that.

Good Luck All - appears maybe I got out too early as the futures look really good for the start, hope it holds all day for you and I hate I will be missing a strong up day

Drawing a blank - 3rd move and above for month - do all funds have to be moved to G or can just some of the funds be moved to G? Example - if the 2nd move was 100% to S. would the 3rd move have to move 100% to G or could it be say 50% to G, and 4th move say another 25% to G? Tks

Moves into G Fund are unrestricted. So yes you can move to G more than the two normally allotted TSP transfers in any percentage you like.

 

[Talan150]

The only move you can make is to G but you can move whatever amount you like. 10, 20, 50%. doesn't matter. If you are 50 C and 50 S you can move 10 from C and 25 from S.

 

[BamaAF]

Was planning a move to 50% in both S and C COB today; but, something just doesn't feel right. The market is begging me to buy in on the low today, and will probably miss a nice run up Monday and Tuesday, but guess I am just chicken. Not being able to bail until Tues COB scares me also. I am staying G for the weekend. Good luck all

I signed in this morning around 7am and didn't have a problem.

 

[BamaAF]

Still unable to get far into TSP site - sometimes it will allow me to sign in and get to the IFT page, but will kick me out after that or won't let me sign in at all - are others still having this issue? Not only do they limit our movement, the system won't even allow a move?

- the site being down cost me some $$

 

[BamaAF]

Almost went in hot today, but afraid this may be a multiple day sell-off - if still down tomorrow, I will probably dip my toes

 

[BamaAF]

Confused, was expecting a little down today in the L30 - but it is showing a modest up tick in the autotracker -- is that correct?

I see the I fund must have got a bump - it is about .20 higher than I had on my phone

 

[BamaAF]

Ouch - got slapped around today

 

[Cactus]

Yeah, hard come -- easy go.
