I fund for August 08

[fedgolfer]

for the sake of our economy and long term retirment accounts I hope we don't see anything lower than $75 on the dollar index for many years.

There will be a happy median.

Why is the U.S. trade deficit shrinking - it's the lower competitive dollar that is helping export trade and that is not about to stop even if the dollar rises.

EAFE final up +$0.0545

S-Fund closed UP today 0.86% -- but, TSP shows it only added .0757 ??

I-Fund closed DOWN 0.39% -- but, TSP shows it lost .4789 ?? :suspicious:

Anyone,
I know about +/-FVs, but how's this possible? -- This has got to be a MISTAKE -- Or its the worst we have EVER seen !!!?
--I'd say same, for BOTH funds -- BOTH got whacked BIG time! -- Is it BARCLAYS ??

Sorry everyone-wrong day!! whoa! TSP was late in posting (too late to delete/edit my goofed post).
Again, OOPS, sorry!:embarrest:

Hessian,

All the funds closed up today. And Barclays posted a $3.4B loss so they have to make it up to their investors...sticking it to TSP is one way to do it. We get forked again - but that was yesterday.

Could this be a day when the I Fund gains ??? :nuts:

The dollar was down but now if the US Markets fail today it's all for not. I think people are scared now more than ever. The volume was so low last week people on vacations any rally really had no support. I am glad I moved all to the G Fund from the S Fund because this could really be that 400 point drop in a day week and I don't want to be in the market to find out which day is the one. :worried:

The I fund sure is looking tempting but I don't have enough lead in my shorts to make my first move this month.
