very good read, i think i understood about half of it lol. i guess im getting better :)

i have a few questions, but im going to post em on my talk, so i dont clutter up bears :)
 
The EAFE INDEX is currently down -0.34%, however, there is a deficit in
the O/D Tracker which shows a plus day (marginal) at this point. If the
Fund Managers brings the deficit down to the (now standard) $0.07 level
the (I) Fund would pull off a gain of +0.33% or +$0.04 TSP Cents per
share. Alot can happen between now and 4PM (est), but thats where
we stand currently. ;)

At 70% US Stocks and 25% International this kind of bounce leads me
to believe that I made the right decision to change my Allocations
yesterday. Good Luck Everyone !

Forget what I said earlier about the new zero. The Fund Managers
like the REAL ZERO just as it is. The Deficit is in the Black area and
within its single digit goal OR 0.0026. It doesn't get much closer then
that now does it. The EAFE INDEX closed down -0.72% and the EFA
closed up +1.00%. The (I) Fund closed up +0.69%.:cool:

Your Shares in the TSP and Dollar-Cost Averaging

In a bear market, many household investors become increasingly fearful of not only how much they should invest, or where they should allocate regular contributions in their employer's long-term retirement plan -- but also if they should continue contributing at all until the market recovers.​

*What is a "share"?
*How are daily share prices determined?
*When do share prices change?
*Does the TSP use the new share prices for my daily transactions?
*Are the earnings for the TSP funds I'm invested in used to purchase
..additional shares in those funds?
*How can I track the number of shares in my account?
*How does my contribution purchase shares in a TSP fund?
*What is dollar-cost averaging?​

I believe that many of our members will find this article, the first
step in fully understanding the basics and how they relate to the TSP​

I know I have!

Awaiting an answer to this one LOL!
 
No 850 yet ! :worried:

I'll be back in 45 minutes to see if risk needs
a reduction or run the risk of a Monday takeback. :confused:
 
Even though I believe we'll come off these levels this afternoon, I still think
it's going to be a heck of a day. I've decided to take some risk off the table.
Not alot, but 35% out of risk will satisfy me if we see profit taking come
Monday or an extension of this Rally.

New Allocations Will Be:
(G)35%
(F)05%
(C)35%
(S)10%
(.I)20%

HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY,,,and,,,HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE ! ;)
 
I have decided to hold my position 60G/40C....dont want to use my last ift to G unless its an emergency and i dont feel this is an emergency........

Good friday is good but easter sunday is just that much better!!!!

Take care
