Well hopefully the S-Fund will start going up. I do like yesterday's close:banana:
Hi Guys,
I hired in with the fed in late 2006 and had a chance to buy back my 6 years of Navy time which I did in the 70s. Cost me about $1300 and now I'm sitting on 15 years that counts towards...
May the chart gods be kind to us today.:nuts:
If I work another 8-9 years I'm hoping to reach double the savings ~ 1.6 million.
Hi Guys,
Thought I would throw in my two cents worth. I'm 58 and only started working for the government since 2006 so my TSP balance is about 245K. Before that I worked private industry and my...
Well I decided that I would make a bold financial move that would make sense and hopefully pay off in the end. Using all of my market know how and expertise in timing the markets.....I decided to do...
I'm starting to see some action in the I-Fund price over the last week. Thinking about doing an inter-fund transfer going from 100% S to 50% each S and I. Any thoughts from any of the esteemed...
Lets see: Monday's close showed I-fund up .43% or .0958 cents, S-fund up .24% or .0693 cents. The market was down tuesday due to negative news from Bank of Japan causing the Nikkie to drop, EFA...
I exited the I fund last friday (6-6-13) and decided to go 100% S-Fund. The overseas markets seemed to go up early monday so we will see how the I-Fund responds this week :cool:.
Thanks again, So the EAFE is used to track US currency and the EFA international markets? And the I fund is a component (or shadows) of both?:confused:
Another question that I have is can I use "ishares MSCI EAFE Index (EFA)" to use as a tool to track the "EAFE" component for the I fund? If I go to the Yahoo Financials site and type in "EFA" it...
I'm still having a hard time figuring out the I-Fund and hope you guys can help me out here? How does the yield going up on the T-bill impact the price of the dollar? If the price of the dollar...
That is the $10 dollar question that probably depends on what you are currently making right now and on what tax bracket you may be in.
Thanks Birch for the insight. I was thinking of pulling the trigger on my I-Fund today but perhaps I'll stick around.:nuts:
Hey Birch,
I just started to revamp my IRA and I was just curious what wall flowers do you particular like right now and the reason why? If you don't mind sharing. Thanks.
For the short term trades outside of an non IRA account what is your tax hit?
Hi Tex,
Don't know if there is a way to get back into the TSP. I personnally would prefer to be in a 401K type of account that allows you more choices (other than index funds) and gives you more...
Ken,
I hope you reconsider. I find your system and the discussions about your system extremely helpfull. Like many others here I am just trying to learn and attempt to understand the nuiances...
So Tom what job are you doing right now that gives you enjoyment? With downsizing taking place all over the country the stress level has dramatically increased.
I appreciate both yours and Birch's comments. Kind of interesting Mr. JR has now turned bullish whereas Ken Johnson has done a quick flip from being in the market to being out. I read both of their...
What do you use to help you with your timing decisions? If you look at Tracker some of the guys have been doing an excellent job on their returns for the year.
Ken I'm still hanging in there at S 80% and I 20%....about time this bull starts to take off again.
Yeah JP I'm hoping this market will go up a little also.
So how often do these charts get updated and what do you call these charts?
Possible a good day today. Stock futures are up....I was hoping for some better than expected earnings this month.
