Ebb,

Ebb,

Yep, it's Central Time. I had to use the thriftline again because I clicked on the 'Send me a password by e-mail' from the TSP gov. site. That made my four pin number null and void.

I made my IFT to the I-fund and since I no longer using the S-fund, I'm going to have to stick with it. Good luck to all.

After some analysis, I also went 100 % I. I wasn't able to do my IFT through the website, so I called the Toll free number. But it was cumbersome nonetheless, because they asked me all sort of questions which they never had before: name, SSN, Tel., address, etc.

 

[ebbnflow]

Airlift, I'm assuming that you talked to a live representative. I only did the automated IFT and it took me about a couple of minutes to complete. I just punched in my SS#, pin# and percentage of new allocation.

 

[airlift]

Ebb,
I did talk to a representative and he admitted they were having problems. Tom did right in posting the telephone in case the problems should continue tomorrow.

By the way Ebb, in choosing the F fund, the ebbtracker was successful in picking the only profitable fund for today!!

Stormy weather brewing on the horizon. Gone to the lily pad. Good luck to all!

Another one of those 3% down days?

 

[ebbnflow]

Fabijo, it could be, the ebbtracker's got me sidelined for the next four days. If the numbers turn out to be good tomorrow, I would expect it to be good for Wednesday also. Then a quick reversal of catastrophic proportion should follow by Thursday and Friday.

I don't know if you read that Jupiter/Uranus deal I put in my comments last week, but the author suggested a potential record down day may be brewing.

I just read it. Interesting, but silly.

There's always the potential record down day and the potential record up day. It's just too difficult to use statistics with a beast that behaves randomly.

Haven't been around lately. Computer shut down and wouldn't comeback up. It is still in the shop. I must be a junkie to this sight. So I took money out the bank and bought a laptop today. From the readings that I've read so far seems rough times are here. I looked at my balance and it definitely shows. But its nice to be back. Lets make some money.

Merlin,

Sometimes you just got to get a new computer!........

Merlin,

I had the same feeling.

A play on the I-fund might be the right play, but a reversal in fortune could be just one or two days away. I'm all rhyme and no reason today. I've gone to the F-fund. Good luck all!

Hang tough, Ebb...I'm watchin' you like a hawk.

 

[ebbnflow]

Yep, hanging tough on the other lily pad. We may get a cent or two from the F-fund today, but I switched to the G-fund for tomorrow. Good luck all!

I'm still licking my wounds on the g-lily. I need the I-fund to hit about $23.66 to get back what I lost last week.:notrust: Man, that hurts!

I'm losing ground today by getting out of the I Fund. I hate that dollar bill.

 

[ebbnflow]

Fabijo, things could have turned out good for the I-fund today. A few more percentage points and we could have had an FV. I hope your monkeys don't start hating on the I-fund.
