It'll be interesting to see how much you left on the table over the next two days and of course next week. You should check pricing for 12/1, 12/2, and 12/3.

[Intrepid_Timer]

Don't know, but hopefully since it happened after noon, it'll be like the I fund and TSP won't add it until tomorrow.................

Let me give you those prices for the I fund: 12/1= $0.50, 12/2 = $0.36, 12/3 = $0.14. I would prefer to see some weakness in the S fund.

It is good to be in the Top Fifty again.

Exceeded my Jan. GOAL and stashed it safely away

As I dont have any more "real" IFTs - nothing to do but wait (well I can play around with my 2% still in the I fund)

If I had been in the domestic funds I might have stayed to play a little longer - NOT! :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Good to see you makin some moola this month. It’s amazing (no it’s not really amazing) how much 1 day’s difference can make. My exit the prior day took me out of the running for coffee cup of the month. Of well, sucks to be me at least the trend is still up.

But its early in the year and when all the users get good and spread out over the board this sort of extreme travel wont be seen much if at all. Thanks I hope you will join us in the Lofty Regions sooon

Whatz wrong with the domestic market today.

Dollar is way down and C & S Railroad doesnt seem to be able to get a head of steam - I fund still looks pretty good.

I better sell 1% tomorrow.

 

[FAB1]

I am usually not watching the last hour of trade, driving home ya know.

So let the chips fall where they may, unless things change looks like the I & F are the winners for today. Kudos to the IT system at work.

I think the real horses [the ones with stamina] in this bull market are the small and big cap indexes. EFA has lagged the market. probably, it is EFA's time to shine!

Dunno, bud. I think they shot their wad.
Bennie is the big spender these days.

Question for you Fab or anyone who can answer.
which index graph shows the value of the dollar?
and how does the value of dollar affect the stocks or what stocks directly? indirectly?

 

[Tsunami]

In stockcharts.com use $USD as the symbol http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui

In Yahoo use DX-Y.NYB http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=DX-Y.NYB&t=5d&l=on&z=l&q=l&c= (but you can only get 5 days, if anyone knows a better Yahoo symbol let me know)

I use ino.com for the dollar http://quotes.ino.com/chart/?s=NYBOT_DX.H11.E

and all other futures..... http://quotes.ino.com/exchanges/futboard/current/

Lot's of red this morning

Thank you Tsunami!

As for how the $ affects the market? Not always, of course but generally stocks and market will run opposite directions and a rising $ will hold stocks back. AS for the I fund a strong dollar/ weak Euro cuts into the profits although the I fund is based on other currencies as well.

Then on occasion things will happen that baffle the mind! Thats what makes this SO FUN dontcha know.
