I kindly asked him to wipe the smirk off his face (Clinton-like), and politely thanked him for giving us TSP'ers some lip service. Did I violate rule #2 or did I just come out like a pain in the a$$? :D
 
Obviously, only the opinions that they want are posted. Not a very democratic system for a so called federal news radio show.
 
I didn't mention it. Simply because it had already been mentioned. SOrry Tom..... :p

Maybe they didn't paste my reply because I mentioned tsptalk.com a couple of times in my post. It would be like free exposure. How many of the people who replied to Mike's comments mentioned tsptalk.com?

One of the producers of the Mike Causey's show contacted me again about being a guest on his radio show this week. For several reasons, I decided to decline for now. I have a feeling it would be like walking into a PETA convention wearing a fur coat. :D

I sent RevShark's people an email to ask if they wanted to step up and take the market timing side, but I haven't heard back.
 
Hey Tom,

I gotta coonskin hat ya can borrow. :laugh:

Approximately 3.6 million participants with approximately $186 billion since Aug. 31, 2006 in the TSP, with 147 "quick traders" they are (or they’re <snicker>) like 0.0022615384615384615% of total participants. TSPTalk members are 2168, so that represents 0.03335384615384616% of the total participants.

And yes I used the online calculator and spell check. :D
 
Show-me, etal.

If the 3.6M participants in TSP would have been afforded the opportunity to follow a news letter or financial advisor like RevShark from the start of the C-fund in 1988 what would you think the Value of TSP would be today?

It would be unbelievable!:eek: Another thing, if we could get everyone to put in at least the minimum to get the matching funds. :eek:
 
It sure would be nice if they offered the matching opportunity to active duty folks. I sure would like a piece of the pie. I understand the Army is testing it this year but I don't know the details.
 
Stocks Hit New Highs! Should You Sell Your C Fund Now?

Now isn't this a much better article than Mike Causey's? Very unbiased. Good ole' Ralph...............:)

Stocks Hit New Highs! Should You Sell Your C Fund Now?

By Ralph Smith


The ultimate goal for many investors is to be able to time the market. In other words, sell your stocks (or your TSP stock funds in this case) when the market is at a peak, put the money into the G fund to keep making money even when stocks are dropping, and then put the money back into stock funds when the market is at its low point. Do this, and you will make a financial killing.

With this goal in mind, should you now sell your C fund because the stock market is hitting new highs and put the money into the G fund? The stock market is seductive. It is good at setting investors up for a fall. It can make you giddy with the thought of your new wealth. It can also make you depressed as you contemplate how much money you would have made "if only" you had invested differently at the right moment.
