I like TSPTalk and I think most people here are well-intentioned but if I followed their advice, I'd be hunkered down in my basement with a thousand cans of tuna fish.

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
What are the odds of a dip going forward? Lets say a trade goes in today, the market will either continue up next week, or dip, but either way will likely be up significantly by December. Whenever I see these cautionary articles, it seems the market takes off leaving folks behind. Thoughts?

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
I'm new to playing with TSP in this fashion, I've been a buy/hold guy for 4 yrs....
There will always be people left behind right? If stocks are gonna rally by years end, the trick is picking the right low in which to dive in...we'll never pick the perfect low, so why not dive in and wait for January 16 to see where we are? Are we collectively scaring each other into believing in a phantom crash that may not come this year?

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
Yep, and it was that bearish commentary that caused me to log a 5% loss in August. For every doom and gloom commentator out there, there's another commentator saying the DOW will reach 19,000 by years end.
