G Fund

Made a new date calc.....looking for the 27th to be the next penny update.....missed this last one on the day.....its was the day after the 19th....

What can I say, the interest rate changed here lately but I did get it close by a day.....

Slope's a'changin......:dude:

Hmm again one day off.....short term slope rates are changing frequently till end of year...looks like we aregoing to get an earlier than expected rate change on the next date....my predicted date is 10/6, but I swear by visual perception from past data on similar circumstances on the chart it will happen earlier....at least a day or two....

Technician, what are the chances of getting that penny today? I'm considering moving over to bonds.

Thanks,

Looks like you are not alone. Heck, the gov site must have crashed today evening with every one reaching it to change their contributions to safety zone in G fund becausemany were saying they can't access it after COB today !!!

Is this why it didn't pay today? :%

Well, I had been getting data that said the 6th was going to be the pay day...but with today's market you just can't tell.....I'm now calculating the 12th for the next pay out....with the 11th as a possibility.........

U just never know...

G Fund is ruling....not that I want it to, but it is......thought I would give it a thumbs up!!!!

We're slip sliding away.......

Well after that miss I will wonder about the rest of the year....

Next projected G fund rate increase date is 21 Oct.....of course with most already in the G fund, it doesn't really matter....

This is almost like shutting your eyes and throwing darts....but the last months of the year, I would expect some jostling around a bit on the rate increase date...

I would think with long term rates rising, it would start coming a little quicker. Like back to 5-6 days instead of 7?

**The_Technician** · 10-20-2005, 12:53 PM

Since I predicted that the G would raise its rates on or about the 21st, I wonder if the rate increase was predicted on a Sat or Sun, would the TSP office wait until Monday evening to make the rate increase......anybody know about this situation...???
