Thread: Rogue's Account Talk

burrocrat just (5/19) went to 100% G.
A "gain a little, or a lot, every month" enthusiast, he's tricksy this one.

Today's IFT-

From: To:
G - 10% 40%
F - 5% 0%
C - 50% 30%
S - 25% 20%
I - 10% 10%


Some notable top 50 from the AT:
SignStealer is 100% S fund, and STILL kicking butt at #21 on the AT.
wwwtractor still 100% I fund (since February) and # 74
Boghie is #472
Burrocrat @ #326 is all-in. All in the G fund!
JPCavin @ # 441 is: 30/45/25 (C/S/I) and 4.46% ytd.
I'm at #554 with 3.42% ytd.

Then there's this:

Your Personal Investment Performance (PIP) for the past 12 months ending 05/31/2015 is 9.33%.

Can't complain too much, but dang there was more opportunity than this in the past 12 mos.

Hmmm. Seems a ripe day to buy a little fear.
Today's IFT-

From: To:
G - 40% 22%
F - 0% 6%
C - 30% 37%
S - 20% 31%
I - 10% 4%

Hmmm. Has your timing ever been just a little off?
Mine has.
Dammit.

Dear Rogue, please correct the IFT since you have already used 2 this month and can ONLY move into G fund from the others.

Apparently this means that so long as G increases, and the other funds only decrease, I can do some rebalancing.
But, for future reference, this is important to know.


Selling a bit of Greek optimism today.
Seems the Europeans are a bit happier.
I don't like this volatility that we've seen the past few weeks, when the mercury is >90 degrees. It makes humans act weird.

Today's IFT-

From: To:
G - 22% - 47% (nod to to the Mittster)
F - 6% - 5%
C - 37% - 22%
S - 31% - 23%
I - 4% - 3%

OK, that one was well-timed. Not to be too heavy-handed with my own back patting.
Listening to the radio early AM, Europe was rallying and all indications until 11:30 looked like we were set to gain a bit, so I moved to what is likely my summer holding.

Damn but today would be a good day to buy (move from G to C/S/I)!

Today's IFT-

From: To:
G - 47% - 30%
F - 5% - 5%
C - 22% - 30%
S - 23% - 30%
I - 3% - 5%

Buying what appears to be a 2-day dip in C,S, and I. Well, technically S improved 0.1% yesterday, but the others appear to be diving.
Contrarians, react!

Haven't posted in a while, nothing to say when you are in the G Fund. I joined your contrarian group. Not sure what all those premium people did, but I will have a go at L2030.

Today's IFT.

From this: To this:
G: 30% 65%
F: 5% 0%
C: 30% 20%
S: 30% 15%
I: 5% 0%

Well, I went the right direction, at the right time, just not enough.
Should've gone 100% G last IFT.
And, now is NOT the time to sell any of these shares. Right?

It's been a bloodbath this week.
I've moved UP to #295 on the AT because I've ONLY lost 0.02% YTD. So far.

It may be time to buy fear in the coming days.
To paraphrase Goodman's character in Raising Arizona, I'm young, I've got my health, what do I want with all that money anyhow?
Seriously though, if a feller could time the "bottom" of this selloff, I be there's gold in them thar hills.
Takes guts though, time to do a gut check I s'pose.
