Move 100% I

Moved 100% I Fund today, don't know if ti will do much better than the C & S over the next few days, China may move some U.S Debt could hurt the dollar a little. Hopefully a slight edge over the C & S.
 
All to G

Moved 100% from I to G today before noon, day late and several dollars short.

Probably move back to stocks tomorrow or Monday.

Should still be a good move. Morgan Stanley says that the I fund will only be down .618% today and foreign markets could well fall again tomorrow in sympathy to our drubbing today.

I Fund

Not sure my move tomorrow for Monday, when will the next penny pay in the G Fund end of next week? I am leaning to the S Fund for Monday, not confident to put a 100% into it.

The penny should pay Monday. Maybe Friday, maybe Tuesday, but probably Monday.

Penny for your thoughts

I got the penny yesterday, two days of losses in the I Fund, 100% in I Fund will ride for a couple of days, thought about small caps but will try this instead the I has been good to me so far.
 
My father-in-law is fond of saying "If you can't be good, it's good to be lucky". TSP board adjusted the I fund price down today by 9 cents. They will have to adjust it back up in the next day or two and you will be the beneficiary. Congrats. Another great move.

Dave: I am not following your logic re the TSP adjustment of the I fund. Are you of the opinion it can not go any lower in the next day or two?

Thanks - Dell

Yes it can. But because of the TSP board's adjustment today, they in effect "owe" the I fund 9 cents. So whatever happens to the MSCI EAFE in the next couple of days, the I fund will perform 9 cents better.

Sell Sell Sell

Take my profits back to the G Fund for me. 100% before noon today 2/9/06 effective Friday the 10th.
 
SELL SELL SELL. I agree. We are banging back against the downtrending line of market highs. The next real down day should be brutal (no later than tuesday imo). In my IRA, I'm in cash and puts with the exception of AAPL calls.
 
Sometime next week

I igured sometime next week it was going to fall, didn't want to be a part of it. I thought today the I Fund would end on a higher note, but it doesn't seem to be, could have another day in the green tomorrow, but I only got back in Tuesday in hopes of a little more bounce, it just wasn't there, but if I make the 9 cents Wheels promised me it will still be a good move.
 
Days like today make you wish that the TSP allocation could be changed right up until 3:59pm est. The market moves so fast at times.

Welcome to the meat grinder.

30 year auction did not go so swell. :cool:
 
The time is funny

I logged on tonight, and it shows me making this trade yesterday, I made it around 11:40 EST today, there must be a way of resetting the clock.

All or Nothing

Moved 100% G Fund into 100% I Fund before noon on 2/21/06 effective in the AM on 2/22/06. Didn't like being on the sidelines last week. Hopefully not a week late, and hoepfully oil remains reasonable for the week, hoping to get the G - penny today, and hopefully a little bounce this week. The dollar did well last week, maybe it will need to a rest, and hopefully the TSP revalues the I Fund for a few more pennys. Sounds like a lot of hoping....
