A RED ARC OVER SWEDEN:

You've heard of auroras--green and purple lights that dance in the sky during geomagnetic storms. But have you ever heard of an SAR? Stable Auroral Red arcs (SARs) were discovered in 1956 at the beginning of the Space Age and have been recorded by cameras on satellites hundreds of times since.

NASA Contacts Voyager 2 Using Upgraded Deep Space Network Dish

https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?feature=7775

"On Oct. 29, mission operators sent a series of commands to NASA's Voyager 2 spacecraft for the first time since mid-March. The spacecraft has been flying solo while the 70-meter-wide (230-foot-wide) radio antenna used to talk to it has been offline for repairs and upgrades. Voyager 2 returned a signal confirming it had received the "call" and executed the commands without issue..."

Crews conduct critical upgrades and repairs to the 70-meter-wide (230-foot-wide) radio antenna Deep Space Station 43 in Canberra, Australia. In this image, one of the antenna's white feed cones (which house portions of the antenna receivers) is being moved by a crane. Credit: CSIRO

Just thought I would add the November numbers again.

 

[nasa1974]

While I'm at it here is December.

 

[nasa1974]

To all our veterans..... Thank you for your service.

To all those that are currently serving..... Thank you.

50 years ago this past September I raised my hand to serve, protect and defend the United States of America. I will do that again if asked.

Appreciate the kind words and right back at ya! I’d do it right now if asked, but I doubt if I could handle 12 hour shifts on the deck of a carrier these days

The loss wasn't as large as I thought it would be yesterday. I forgot about the nice positive day the market had on Veteran's Day. Still above 9% MTD.

 

[nasa1974]

Took a look at the top 100 on the AutoTracker. Sixty-five members are 90% to 100% in the "C" & "S" funds. This includes combinations equaling 90% to 100% in both funds. Just thought it was interesting. The top 100 YTD Returns range from 16.28% to 75.25%.

Not sure why but I went back to my first post. Man April 2008 was a long time ago. Talk about wet behind the ears.

Went through the first ten pages, Don't have the time to reread all of them.

Came across a few names that were some great contributors to this site.

Thanks nnuut and Frixxxx for jumping in early.

Here are a few more names the old timers will remember;

I know there are a lot more that contributed to my thread that have faded away from this website.
Still there are many more contributing now and keeping all of us on our toes.

Just wanted to post December's numbers again.

 

[nasa1974]

Took a look at the top 100 on the AutoTracker. Sixty-five members are 90% to 100% in the "C" & "S" funds. This includes combinations equaling 90% to 100% in both funds. Just thought it was interesting. The top 100 YTD Returns range from 16.28% to 75.25%.

I posted the above on the 13th. Talk about going bullish since then. The "S" fund has had a surprising run for the month, so far. Looking at the Tracker the "S" fund has moved into the top 100. Out of the top 100 only 13 are not 90% or better in any combination "C & S" funds. with the "S" fund moving up in the tracker that makes it 13 out of the top 200. Not sure how long this market will continue it's move up, but for sure it will take a fall. The gaps that have shown up the last couple of weeks gives me concern. Good luck everyone.

I can't remember the last time I was in the "G" fund but I went 100% "G". I like where I am at currently and will wait a few days. I still have one more IFT for November. Good luck everyone.

YOU ARE DOING VERY VERY WELL!

Thanks. Mostly luck.

 

[nasa1974]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Stay safe.

 

[nasa1974]

Markets up. I was hoping for another down day so I could jump back into the "S" fund.

This video is pretty cool if you are into video games or science fiction movies and tv shows.
You have to endure a few commercials but it is still pretty good.

I'm working on tweaking my Excel Spreadsheet for my 2021 TSP Account. It should be ready this weekend. That doesn't mean I missed something. I always do.
It's too large to attach to a post so if you are interested send me a "Private Message with your email and I will send it to you. It has an instruction tab at the bottom of the spreadsheet to get you started.
