Thanks! I'm looking forward to using the tracker. (But I can't say that I'm looking forward to having the TSP veterans put a whoopin' on this rookie!)

All you have to do is remember the old song by Del Shannon - "Runnining Scared" no place to go...and do just the opposite of our leaders. GL.

Welcome to the board. The board and it's members make it easy to learn the ways of the force(market). Sit back and learn but remember all IFT's are up to you.

Welcome Jeff. Keep coming back. There a lot of smart people on this board. Even if they are government employees.

Moving from 100% G-fund to 100% C-fund as of COB 12-14. I think the market is a little oversold and due for a bounce over the next few days. The drop this week has helped get rid of talk about "Dow 20,000."

**ContrarianJeff** · 12-21-2007, 04:11 PM

Moving from 100% C-fund to 100% G-fund as of COB today, 12-21-07. I don't like gap ups on option expiration days. Plus, banks and financials have been in the tank despite tech's ride up. I think the banks may pull us down another leg lower.

I'm moving from 100% G to 100% S as of COB today--12/31/07. It looks like we are a little oversold, and I think the small-caps are overdue for a bounce. Seasonality is also a plus, and sentiment is in the neutral to slightly pessimistic range. A down day today would set us up nicely for the rest of the week.

Moving from 100% S to 50% S and 50% I. I've lost so much this year with the S fund, I'd like to spread the losses around some and see if I can lose even more with the I fund!

I am an idiot, and I have totally misread this market. But I know as soon as I go to cash, the market will rebound and I will be even worse shape than if I had just stayed in stocks.
