Hey Rod, appreciate your comments. Unless you are restricted some how. I find that I can goback to June 02, 2003, to check price of shares. I use this method alot to make comparisons. http://www.tsp.gov/rates/share-prices.html

At the upper centerof the share-price page you should be able to select how far back you want to look.

You are correct. I forgot about that, although I've used it before.

Well, today may not be as GREEN as we had hoped for.

I stand corrected!:u


The S Fund ended up with a 6 cent gain while I thought itwas down at market close. I must have had a brainfart.

God Bless!:^

I wonder how the market is going to react to the news of Arafat passing away this morning. I'm thinking since it didn't happen suddenly that it won't be a factor.

Happy Veteran's Day everyone!!

Hey Tom, after a couple of inane moves, I was ready to follow any body (note to self, its okay to stop beating yourself up after some really stupid stupid moves). And your comments yesterday appeared on cue, but after reading what it appeared as "the majority", I backed off from going 100% S fund. But you evidently reading it right.

As a matter of fact I was tempted to move evrything back to the G--yesterday I was 50% G, 20% C, 20%I, and 10% S. As it tuned out I got so involed in reading financial data/news the deadline for making changes got behind me. Soooo, I kept the same position-as stated above.

I probably will move more to today back to G, just don't know at this time...the saga continues.



Good call Tom

Next time Arafat dies (is this #2 or 3?) we'll know how to play it.

My tentative plan was to go back to 50 / 50 for Monday (Friday morning transfer). So far I haven't changedmy mind. Let's see what happens later today and Friday morning.

I am initiating a transfer Wednesday morning going 100% S fund effective Veteran's Day, Thursday, November 11th. It is historically a very good day.

I will most likely go back to 50% G, 50% S effective Monday 11/15.

It's a "wiggle" play because I still think we need a breather, but the 11/11 numbers are too strong to pass up for a play.

Tom

Good call Tom!!! :^Making up for earlier in the year? :shock:Just kidding.........

Thanks, but believe me it isn't always this good. You'll be cursing me again before you know it.:?

It seems like whenever I look the worst, the best is about to come. And when I look like a genius, humbling is around the corner. Be careful.

My decisions are my own. Always cautious. Always optimistic.
