You can make unlimited moves to the G fund. I did that today when the S&P was sitting at my target of 2450, and of course now it's crumbling and keeping me from topping +6% at the end of June, unless the buyers step up.

If it's the G fund you want to go to you should be able to.

Thanks guys...I know about the G fund move. I guess I should have phrased things better but was in a rush...what I should have said is something like this...

Due to the stupidity/greediness of the managers of the TSP funds we are limited to 2 lousy moves per month with a fail safe of unlimited moves to the G. Since I have already used one of those 2 allocated moves this month, this restriction prohibits me from exiting to the G fund without giving up my ability to be invested in the C/S/I on July 3rd.

You can contact Amoeba about how many "G moves" you can do in a month...he's the record holder.

You can move to the G fund now and move back in on 2 July with one of your new IFTs for the month.

Nevermind, I should have looked at the calendar first... :-/

Using 1st monthly IFT to exit from I to G...COB today.
Low VIX, exiting temporarily...hope to get back in before end of next week, depending on what the market serves up.

Whew!

Now my system has me looking to get back in, as early as Wed, depending on how the market opens.

Follow the bouncing ball!

Did not have time to update earlier here, but took the morning downturn as an opportunity to buy back in at a lower price.

Going in full into stocks...60% I and 40% S by COB today.

Up at New highs (some indices) VIX at a new low, and we've been up a few days (including today barring something unforeseen).

Seems like a good time to use 1st IFT of the month to lock in gains (was in half S and half I all month). Went 100% G COB today
Will look to jump back in on the 1st big down day next week, if its there.

I got my sticky pants on and going to ride the "S" train for awhile.
