Foghorn's Account Talk

I'm finally jumping in to be tracked.

I expect the market to dip a little based on the election results, or at least on the skittishness of investors.

**Foghorn** · 11-14-2006, 01:11 AM

Moved to the S and I. Let's see how it goes. I can't sit on the G fund sideline too long.

**Foghorn** · 11-20-2006, 09:56 PM

Moved to the C, S, and I - 35%,35%, and 30%.

I expect to spend the holiday here unless something changes drastically. I'll look to moving out around Friday.

Moved from G fund to 30-C, 30 - S, and 40 - I by COB today.

I entered the IFT first and then I'm posting it. I saw where someone forgot to make the IFT, they intended to do it but got caught up in the time crunch.

I'm jumping into the whirlpool, at least that what it looks like. I think this is going to be an opportunity to make some money but it does look scary right now.

I moved to the safety of the G fund today.

I've had some great gains and I need to protect them until I believe that the market will continue going up.

I believe it will continue it's upward swing but I intend to try and avoid the dips, except to buy back in.

I may stay here through the beginning of next week.

Moved to 100% C Fund today.

Lets see what Santa brings this year.

**Foghorn** · 12-29-2006, 02:41 AM

I moved to:

20% - G

40% - C

40% - S

I'm going to start the New Year with this distribution and then see what begins to develop before I make another move.

2006 has been great for the TSP and for me. I did great this year. I did better once I learned about TSPTalk.

I went back and graphed my TSP performance for the year. I noticed that I smoothed out the drastic drops in the continual climb upwards. I'm giving the credit to everyone on this website because I learned how to better manage my account from all of you here.

Thanks,

FH

Moved to 60/20/20 - G, S, & I.

I don't want to spend the long weekend feeling like I've got my neck exposed.

The markets are itching for a reason for a correction.

So, I'm protecting the bulk of my lump, while still keeping some money in play.

Moved to 30%-C, 30%-S, and 40% -I by cob today.

Lets see if the indicators are correct that it's ok to for these funds the rest of the week.

**Foghorn** · 01-23-2007, 08:26 AM

I'm moving to the G - Fund. Hoping to catch a bounce today and then move out. That would be good.

**Foghorn** · 01-25-2007, 04:50 PM

Moving to:

40 -C, 40 -S, and 20 -I.

The overall market sentiment is still up regardless of the short term downturns.

I'm moving to the G Fund. The move should hopefully avoid any reactions on Wednesday and Thursday. I'll likely move back in for Friday.

From a post in Market Talk.

NNUUT,

From the article you posted it appears that Monday and Tuesday should be relatively stable days. The first danger shows up on Wednesday. So, I'm going to stay in stocks through Tuesday and get out at COB Tuesday. I'll likely get back in on COB Thursday, depending on what it looks like.

"However, he noted that stock and bond investors are likely anticipating the steady-as-she-goes approach. Therefore investors are unlikely to be ruffled by a lack of change, beyond a typical knee-jerk reaction.
The fourth-quarter GDP report Wednesday, however, could throw a few curves, he said. "It's a difficult one to predict because the reads on inventories and exports move around a lot," Shapiro said. In addition, this is the preliminary read on the fourth quarter, later to be advised.
At the end of the week, investors get the January jobs report, which should show continued solid growth in payrolls. Where the report could threaten stock gains is if average hourly earnings - the report's inflation component - shows a bigger-than-expected decline."
