Good luck! and go get'm Tom![]()
I am making an interfund transfer Thursday morning going 100% G fund before the deadline. I am expecting another push down at some point next week but something else caught my attention. The day prior to Good Friday is seasonally strong but the day after Easter has only been up 2 of the prior 21 occurrences when the S&P 500 is trading below the 50-day moving average as it is now.Today's rally makes that decision easier.
Effective Monday 3/28, 100% G fund. I will likely be back into stocks sometime next week.
Good luck! and go get'm Tom![]()
Seems like this month hasn't been following the seasonality data much. I think oil and the threat of inflation have been overshadowing it.
I noticed that JerBer. The S&Phas almost been an exact opposite image of the March seasonality data. But when the post holiday stats, earnings warnings season and end of the month (except last day or two) data line up withanervous market, I decided to go with it.
You also have the long holiday week-end and the way its been overseas I don't want to be in the market on a long religous holiday weekend..

I won't play it but I hadn't noticed that pattern.
Tom, as you recognized I am new to your site, but I am telling everyone else about the site. I was wondering how you have made out percentage wise with your system.:shock:
Thanks for the promotion D&C.

Hi Tom
Is the far right column on your prior year returns the amount of annual yield if one had been spread equally among the 5 funds? And if so, does that mean that really your earnings for all of those years would have worked out about the same, if you had spread your investment equally?
Thanks Gawga

TSPTALK IS A GREAT SITE, THANKS. LIKE DAZEDAND CONFUSED IM PUTTING THE WORD OUT. I have Learn a great deal. As part of my work I am watching grafts and charts. They only mean something if you know what the process is. I am following your allocations for this year, so good luck. I did not follow you 100% to the G fund currently 90%G 10%C. Cant help but gamble a little and keep a toe in the C fund.
ILL be Watching!!! :^
Tom,
In addition to Dazed and Confused and Carloc, I have also been mentioning your site toothers, to present co-workers and even to co-workers that just retired that are still managing their TSP funds. Theyall find your site very helpful and speak very highly of all that you do here. I have learned a lot more and gained a better understanding of TSPfrom joining your site. As far as going 100% into the G Fund effective 3/28, but likely to get back into the stocks next week, what do you think you might get back into, theC Fund again? What do you think about the I Fund? I was looking at the I fund and with the share prices dropping on that fund as well, would you think this would be a good time to buy into the I fund? Do you think the I fund is close to bottom and that this might be a good time to get in before it starts going back up again in price?
