Squalebear's Account Talk

[Guest2]

So is Barclays making their adjustments? Let's hope today starts the bounce everyone has been talking about this week. Just wish I didn't have to make a move before noon. The market seems to really make dynamic changes right around the closing of the USO. GGGRRRRRRR!!!!!May the force be with you.

With a Deficit, I'd say Barclays is using our funds elsewhere. But with a
Overpayment, curiously after a cash infusion, they may be using the TSP
to stock pile paper until needed. This is all a guess on my part because
(frankly) I don't know what the heck is going on, nor do I have any clue
about how the system works. What I do know is; The (I) Fund is doing
better then the EFA by almost 1.50% and I can't help but think they will
underperform the (I) Fund to keep the difference closer.

The next 3 market days will certainly tell us to either open the champagne
or sit in the (F) Fund until the Cows come home. $Mooooooooooooooooo!$

(C) Fund -13.10% YTD
(S) Fund -10.16% YTD
(I) Fund -13.49% YTD

I was hoping for the (C) and (I) to move up
towards the (S) YTD % and alls we've seen
is the (S) slowly dropping down to the 13%
area. The (S) has been lagging behind few
days. Today's opening is no exception;

(S) -1.51% currently
(C) -0.36% currently :suspicious:

One strong reason I selected the (C) Fund
when I stupidly jumped in with both feet.

Boy, oh boy. Look at that (I) Fund jackrabitt at the opening.
+.73% at this moment. As I've previously wrote, I feel the (I)
will underperform the EFA. But with a strong up day, the pain
can be eliminated and a gain could be had. Here's hoping my
friends in the (I) see a mega gain !

coincidence that S fund is -1.51 and I Fund is "outperforming" EFA by 1.50, and so far this year S fund has led C/I up, now down?

As I type...bottom 1250 I think....here we go for the holiday bounce and sell off..

@#%& DAY TRADERS!!!

That combined with the IFT limits is really making it next to impossible to time anything, especially in this bear market...

Now, now, we are day traders, remember ?
There isn't a member here that wants to be restricted.
Even if they don't move their monies often, Gov't Intervention
is not the preferred choice. It's like being stuck in the mud.

I'm wondering if this is the day I should pull back to G?

I started June with 35C 35S, 30I, thinking I'd spread my risk. Man what an utter beating all three funds ended up taking!!!

Now sitting 25G 30C 25S 20I and I'm still taking a beating hoping for a bounce that may never materialize.

What to do...:notrust:
