nasa1974's Account Talk

I tried the log in button on the right and still have problem with multiple sign in before it allow to login. Thanks.

I've had that happen many times too, but found that if I open up a fresh browser (not a new tab, but a whole new browser) and go straight to tsp.gov without going to any other web site first, then it works. They need to fix this web site quirk.

NASA, the market is looking a lot like your avatar today, blastoff. The Elliott wavers just keep changing the labeling though to show it in a final wave 5. I think this makes about the 25th straight day they've done that. :cheesy: Here's an example:

WEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Dang it!! Where did the icon go?

 

[nasa1974]

Nice jump in the tracker yesterday, went from 314 to 266. :cheesy: Hopefully I can finish the year above 200.

Asia closed strong and Europe is doing well so far. Might be another good day in the market. Good luck everyone.

As an agency yes. As a Center I do not think so.

Tuesdsay was a huge up day. Wednesday and Thursday was a little bit of a surprise, but profit is profit. Not sure if I want to watch the market today, it could be ugly. Just a gut feeling but if the S&P can stay above 1150 we might have a good week next week. Don't want to think about what might happen if 1150 doesn't hold.

Going to be out of the office for a few hours. I've got a 9 o'clock tee time.

Good luck everyone.

Everybody enjoy Columbus Day?

 

[nasa1974]

Yesterday was a nice surprise. I was away from the computer most of the day so I had no idea how the market was doing until I took a look after 1pm. So what can we expect for the rest of the week? Good luck everyone.

 

[nasa1974]

looks like we are going to give back some of yesterdays profits.

 

[nasa1974]

After seeing how the stock market ended yesterday I was mildly surprised last night when I looked at the tracker. I gained a whopping 0.09%. Now granted that is not a lot to get excited about but I really was expecting to be on the negative side yesterday. What can we expect today???

 

[nasa1974]

Anybodies guess what the C & S fund will do. Both have been bouncing around in a narrow channel most of the day. Who will win bulls or bears? Good luck everyone.

Anybody else have a problem with their fund allocation not transfering from paycheck to TSP? The money went somewhere because my paycheck deposit was normal.

Contributions aren't there yet again this pay period. Maybe by monday...

 

[eccougar]

TSP site closing date is 10/14, not updated yet.

 

[KevinD]

Good point...

 

[nasa1974]

Another crazy day in the market. Making me a little nervous. :worried:
