You have two different possibilities to do, you can do a interfund transfer(funds only), or a contribution transfer(your bi-weekly contributions). Go into the TSP and read all the information given to you. It will help you quite abit.

Interfund transfers. The percentages given (70S/30C, for instance) refers to what the whole account balance looks like.

Someone answer this question for me please. When we make changes to our TSP accounts, are we doing Controbution Allocation transfers or Interfund Transfers?

It's a run to the exit for small cap investors when interest rate concerns surface.

Ya, the S&P500 appears to be much stronger than the Wilshire 4500 today; I'm glad you got me interested in the C fund. Does this 'inversion' happen often?

Friday the new jobs report will be out and from what I have been reading, there is some potential for some blow out numbers (lots of jobs)with possible major revisions to prior reports. This could trigger more short term interest rate fears.

What does this mean for the market? My guess is interest rate sensitive small caps may be affected most. The dollar may rise because of additional signs of a strengthening U.S. economy, which could affect the I fund adversely.

These are all guesses, and this is just how I am playing it. This is a short term move and it could all change in a day or so.

Looks like I wasn't the only one worried about the small caps. They're getting hit pretty hard today. Is this a 'sell the rumor', 'buy the news' deal? I hope not since I will only be 20% S tomorrow.

Hi, this is my first time in message arena, I would like to follow your allocation changes as close as possible but I get them to late to make changes. It is my understanding that it has to be done by 11:00 a.m. to take effect next day?

Thanks
Bigged

I'm maxing out my current cautious level and going down to 60% stocks. Beginning tomorrow I will be 40% G, 40% C and 20% S.

The market has been up about 8 of the past 9 days. Yesterday's oil news may have been the exhaustion rally (the last of the bears became bulls) I had been talking about. We have been due for a short term pullback andwe are now seeing signs that it may be starting.

Friday the new jobs report will be out and from what I have been reading, there is some potential for some blow out numbers (lots of jobs)with possible major revisions to prior reports. This could trigger more short term interest rate fears.
