I feel that F funds will have a steady gain into December.

The S will pull another yoyo gain/loss before holding at 16-16.30 for the second half of December. Sell early this year as to not get caught with your pants down. I recommend 100%G as early as 22Dec and as late as 27Dec.

I funds are a toss up but may hit 17 again before the year is out. I think it best to play around in the F\S funds.

Looking at the 50 years charts that you put up TSP Talk, do you think it's a good idea to be in the G or F Fund at the beginning of December then get back in the I/S in the middle. It seems to be a good bet. I moved all my I fund to the G after moving it 2 times in November for a nice gain instead of a small loss. Any comments would be appreciated. I'm getting tired of hearing people say leave it alone. I did that in 2000 to lose 40 percent of my gains.

Welcome deadmoney! It may be a good idea but I am hoping we get a decent pullback during the first 2 - 3 weeks of December. I would feel better about playing the strong Xmas seasonality trend.

Thanks for joining us.
