Didn't do as well as the top dogs in the Tracker. But yesterday earned me .86% and YTD I am 1.50%. That would have me just inside the top 50. :D:D Second quarter has been pretty good since I was at -2.12% at the end of the first quarter.

Steady as she goes Nasa, the year's not even 1/2 over and your patience
will be rewarded before 12/31/08. Pick'n Choose,,,,Pick'n Choose,,,In only
2 months, you gained almost 3%,,Something to be proud of and something
that can be duplicated. YTD Double Digit Returns are foreseeable.

I made my 5th IFT this morning and pulled everything into the G Fund. Going into protect mode. I think, we will still see some gains this month but they will be small compared to the loses. Finally on the plus side of the market and do not want to throw that away. :D What helped make up my mind was this article from StockTiming.com:

Investors were doing their "Oh Wows!" yesterday when the Dow Jones Transportation Index made a new high.
They should have been saying: "Something's wrong here!". Oil closed at a high of $127 a barrel and the index that is most negatively affected by it is ... you guessed it, the Transports. Isn't anyone concerned by this incredible divergence of opposite behaviors? The pit traders are concerned ... they don't like the action and they don't trust it.
Where do you look for the reality for what is going on it the markets? I trust the action on the Institutional's "top core holdings". They control over 50% of the volume on any given day, so watching what they are doing is more telling than someone driving up the Transports under ridiculous circumstances. See today's update link for the important Institutional event yesterday.
On another note ...
Shanghai Downside Risk Alert: The Shanghai Composite moved down -4.48% last night and the Shanghai was moving down to its critical support. Its RSI Indicator is still in negative territory and falling. If it can't get past the upper channel's RSI resistance, then the Shanghai will likely move down lower and close its recent gap below its critical support level at 3358.93. The Shanghai is now under a downside Risk Alert.

Looking to my unrestricted IFT's for June. Good Luck to all. May the Force be with You.
 
When I made my final IFT into the (G), I did so with a 1.07% MTD gain.
If I could do that every month, I'd become a Premium Service (LoL). I'm
sure if you look at your May MTD% return, you'll see a pleasant surprise.

9 more trading days until the new month !
I wanted to inspire you !
:nuts:
 
As of today my MTD is 1.45% and YTD is 1.80% after I had a -2.12% at the end of the first quarter. I can't complain. :D That would definitely add up to a good year.:laugh:
 
Looks like I will be in "G" until the end of the first week of June or second week. Going on travel next week. Listening to some the various websites that may be a good thing. :D GL to all the shakers and movers. :cool: May the Force be with You.
 
I know that we need to stay the course and our TSP investments are for the long haul. It is unfortunate that we have been restricted to only 2 good moves a month. It has handcuffed all of us from the ability to follow the market trends. Because of the IFT restrictions I moved what little I have earned over the last 20+ years into the G (into "protect mode"). :( For right now I think it was a good move. Before the move I was 1.80% YTD (1st quarter I was at -2.12%). After going into protect mode I dropped to 1.47% 9can never seem to move on the up side) :D. If I had stayed the course I would be sitting at 1.14%. At least for now I am glad I made the move. Lets hope I can catch the wave everyone is talking about sometime in June. GL to all.
 
10:21pm EDT Cleveland, Ohio. Just saw the space station pass overhead. She had a slight red tint and quite bright. Very cool. :cool:

Starting to agree with most of the posts and information I am reading. Sounds like the bubble is getting ready to burst. I hope everyone is in their safe zone this week.

Remember ours troops and have a safe Memorial Day.
 
I've been doing "stop loss" in my tsp account for years. I try to handle it as if it was a regular trading account and not be greedy. When I get greedy or panic and ignore my stops, I lose.
 
Haven't posted in a few days. Watching the rally from the G fund. Still slightly ahead if I had stayed in C/S/I. Waiting to see how next week sets up before using the first of my June IFT's. GL to all.
 
What a great vid! Do you remember what were you doing when that first step was taken on the moon?:D

The Magnificent Century for the USA. YES!

Disheartening though, to think that even with all the money spent, in the 21st Century we are still using the same technology that got us there - riding on the back of a rocket. And that is WWII German technology Von Braun brought us. We have made no progress in human space travel, despite all the spinoff benefits it has brought us. We need to look ahead to look beyond....think outside the box.
