I'm was doing another <1% IFT Monday morning .
I logged on to tsp.gov Monday morning and submitted <1% IFT trying to boost my S & I funds to 12% and 4%.
tsp.gov responded I could not.

Interesting, what were the exact percentages listed on the site before you submitted the IFT?

If the didn't have any decimals, that may be why. If they were 11.01% and 3.01% or greater, you should have been able to "round" them up to 12 and 4...

I tried to boost my S fund a %. Also my I fund a %. TSP.gov said I couldn'n because I had already used both of my IFTs for the month. Tonight I tried to boost my S fund a % and it looks like it was accepted. I will find out Friday when they send me my notice.

With my bag of stocks it don't look like I will reach 1% by end of month. I though today would be a somewhat good day for me but I only collected 0.17@%. And, I keep getting pusted further down the tracker!

 

[Handballer]

It was. No notice received.

Weekly Update:
Effective Monday, January 4th:
G fund 50%
S fund 50%
For the week moved way up the tracker to #716.
Gain for year: 1.55%. Gain for week: Not much.

Thinking of going crazy Monday by going 100% into S/I.
After that, taking a well deserved vacation to get back some of the money lost last time.:nuts:

I overheard yesterday on the news that Spring will be here in 17 days. Now its only 16 days away. I can't wait to put these winter boots and clothing away and get into my more seasonal attire. And the beach is a couple miles down the road.

Same here HB but till then I need to go out and clean the snow off the 4X4 so the wife and I can get to work:laugh:

Cant find the Sentiment Survey results. I'm guessing I will stay in the super S fund for a while longer.

 

[Cactus]

Can't find the Sentiment Survey results? Doesn't that mean pull all your funds out of TSP? :nuts:

It looks like it's there now and we are in the S Fund.

No way! I might not make another IFT until later this month.

It looks like it's there now and we are in the S Fund.

Nothing could be finer.
Thanks.
