    I have the F fund up 3 cents at the moment.

    O.K. By using the change field in both tnx and tyx I got

    -(-.065 + -0.46) * .25 = .02775 or 3 cent's.

    Am I correct 350Z ?

    Thank You very much 350Z...

    I'm making notes currently and will help post this number. Remember people I've got three more weeks vacation and I'm not going to be around during the day.

    You people that want to know F - Fund estimates need to figure it out too.

    I'm not even going to try the I - Fund now.

    Thanks Again, 350Z

    Update:

    (-.86 + -.64) / 10 * .25 = .0375 or up 4 cents.

Might be a bad move but nothing to worry about now.

    Does anyone have any predictions for the F Fund in the future or did I get out in time before it drops off?
    Predictions are tough but look back at the F fund during the period of 2000-2002, and then again 1990-1993 during recessions and when the Fed was cutting interest rates and the F fund did very well, often greater than what you'd anticipate would the C fund will this year. So if you think that the Fed may cut rates again and we are in a recession tipping point, and you have some patience and are willing to take a little risk, then I'm anticipating that the F fund will do ok this year (some thing in the range of 5-7%) which will be better than the G fund which may not out pace inflation.
    At least that is my bet.

    .03574 is barely 4 cents. Yesterday's loss might have been -6.3 or so cents. Keeping a running tap of the F fund price, up to 4 or 5 digits, will make your calculation very accurate. That was what I used to do with the I fund price. I had the I fund price up to 8 decimals. That was why I was able to consistantly nail the price right to the penny. Oops..there goes another secret...

    Now you know why I tend to blow my valves once in a while...

    You're welcome poolman,

    Actually, if you have Excel or any spreadsheet, it will be a lot easier. It will allow you to easily keep adding to the price day after day. And also, adjustments to the price can be done very quickly.
