Moved 100 G on Friday before noon. just planning on getting the penny probably move back to I.

[CheapShot]

Following Tom's Lead moved 100% G into 100% F Fund effective 1/18/06.

[CheapShot]

Moved 100% I Fund today, don't know if ti will do much better than the C & S over the next few days, China may move some U.S Debt could hurt the dollar a little. Hopefully a slight edge over the C & S.

[CheapShot]

Moved 100% from I to G today before noon, day late and several dollars short.

Probably move back to stocks tomorrow or Monday.

Should still be a good move. Morgan Stanley says that the I fund will only be down .618% today and foreign markets could well fall again tomorrow in sympathy to our drubbing today.

Not sure my move tomorrow for Monday, when will the next penny pay in the G Fund end of next week? I am leaning to the S Fund for Monday, not confident to put a 100% into it.

The penny should pay Monday. Maybe Friday, maybe Tuesday, but probably Monday.

I got the penny yesterday, two days of losses in the I Fund, 100% in I Fund will ride for a couple of days, thought about small caps but will try this instead the I has been good to me so far.

[Wheels]

My father-in-law is fond of saying "If you can't be good, it's good to be lucky". TSP board adjusted the I fund price down today by 9 cents. They will have to adjust it back up in the next day or two and you will be the beneficiary. Congrats. Another great move.

Dave: I am not following your logic re the TSP adjustment of the I fund. Are you of the opinion it can not go any lower in the next day or two?

Thanks - Dell

[Wheels]

Dave: I am not following your logic re the TSP adjustment of the I fund. Are you of the opinion it can not go any lower in the next day or two?

Thanks - Dell

Yes it can. But because of the TSP board's adjustment today, they in effect "owe" the I fund 9 cents. So whatever happens to the MSCI EAFE in the next couple of days, the I fund will perform 9 cents better.

[CheapShot]

Take my profits back to the G Fund for me. 100% before noon today 2/9/06 effective Friday the 10th.

[Cortez]

SELL SELL SELL. I agree. We are banging back against the downtrending line of market highs. The next real down day should be brutal (no later than tuesday imo). In my IRA, I'm in cash and puts with the exception of AAPL calls.

[CheapShot]

I igured sometime next week it was going to fall, didn't want to be a part of it. I thought today the I Fund would end on a higher note, but it doesn't seem to be, could have another day in the green tomorrow, but I only got back in Tuesday in hopes of a little more bounce, it just wasn't there, but if I make the 9 cents Wheels promised me it will still be a good move.

[Cortez]

Days like today make you wish that the TSP allocation could be changed right up until 3:59pm est. The market moves so fast at times.

Welcome to the meat grinder.

30 year auction did not go so swell. :cool:

[CheapShot]

I logged on tonight, and it shows me making this trade yesterday, I made it around 11:40 EST today, there must be a way of resetting the clock.

Got it changed thanks, it has been bugging me.

[CheapShot]

Moved 100% G Fund into 100% I Fund before noon on 2/21/06 effective in the AM on 2/22/06. Didn't like being on the sidelines last week. Hopefully not a week late, and hoepfully oil remains reasonable for the week, hoping to get the G - penny today, and hopefully a little bounce this week. The dollar did well last week, maybe it will need to a rest, and hopefully the TSP revalues the I Fund for a few more pennys. Sounds like a lot of hoping....

[CheapShot]

Moved from 100% I Fund into 25% C, 25% S, 50% I Fund, probably just for a day, depending how the AM goes tomorrow, I will probably go back 100% I for Monday.

[CheapShot]

I was hoping to go back to all I Fund for Monday, but meetings at work just get in the way sometimes, no move today for Monday, hopefully the C, S, I Fund will all be green on Monday.

[CheapShot]

Today for tomorrow went 10 C, 25 S, 65 I. Looks we'll get back some of the losses today from yesterday. Hoping the S Fund has a little more room to move up then the C Fund and am still bullish on the I Fund, depending if the Asian Market doesn't jump to high today I may go all I Fund tomorrow, if it is down will probably still go all I tomorrow, if it jumps to high probably back off the I fund for Friday or Monday.

[CheapShot]

Looking for a little bounce tomorrow, may ride it through until Monday, then maybe take a little rest in the G Fund.

[CheapShot]

Diversified a little today on before noon for Monday, 25 to G Fund, 10 to F Fund, 30 to S Fund, and leaving 35 in the I Fund. If Monday is not positive I'll spread around some of the losses, whille keeping 25% safe in the G Fund.

[CheapShot]

Moved 65 to G Fund, 35 to I Fund protecting some of my gains over the first two months.

[Wheels]

So much for not jumping around that much this year!

Dave
<><

[CheapShot]

I know, I Know, I've already made my twelfth transaction this year, I really, really, plan on holding this 65 G 35 I balance for the week.

Want to see how this week pans out. Maybe make a move next week.

I need a child proof lock on my computer keyboard that only allows me to read and not pull the trigger.

[CheapShot]

Moved 25 to G Fund, 10 to C Fund, 25 to S Fund, 40 to I fund, I know a lot of people hate the I Fund, I hate the F Fund, but I don't see how you can't be invested with some amount in the I Fund. The world market is out performing the U.S. Market as the U.S Market waffles. Even if the U.S. Market takes off the world market will initally benefit from it, unless of course the dollar takes if which I just don't see happeneing. The dollar is waffling more than Market is. Just an opinion.

[CheapShot]

Moved to 100% stocks 30 into C Fund, 50 into S Fund, and 20 into I Fund.

Will try to hold the allocation for the week probably go Heavy I Fund later into next week.

[CheapShot]

Unloading for Monday, don't have a good handle on next week, will hold some profits, hopefully get the penny on G on Monday, and not today. Moving 60% into G, 30% into C, and leaving 10% in the I fund.

[CheapShot]

Red Sky in morning sailor take... I'm not a sailor, all back in. 15 into C Fund, 25 into S Fund, 60 into the I Fund.

[CheapShot]

Moved 40% to G Fund, 30% to C Fund, and 30% to S Fund, will enjoy my I Fund Profits in Cancun next week, good luck to you all next week may the price of oil drop, and may you all be prosperous...

[CheapShot]

Hopefully under the wire today, I think I entered my transaction at 11.59 AM Eastern. Got burned in Cancun last week, hopefully I don't get burned with my transactions this week. 70 G Fund, and 30 I Fund, see how the week turns out.

[Wheels]

You've been back for one day and already you are moving money around. You must have been Jonesin' for an IFT all week.

How was the trip?

Dave
<><

[CheapShot]

I got fried on my first day there, I hid under an umbrella all day stayed in the shade, no sun protection, I'm OK I'm in the shade. Burned to a crisp the sun went right through the umbrella. So I had to foretake in the many liquid refreshments that were available to me to keep my mind off of the burn.

Pleasantly I returned to find my TSP balance had grown, not immensly, but enough to cover my expenses for the Wobbly Pops I had in Cancun.

Oh and yes, I couldn't wait to move that balance around as soon as I got back, it gets stale when it isn't moving...

[CheapShot]

You can't win if you don't play... From 70 G and 30 I to 10 C Fund, 35 S Fund, and 55 I fund.

[CheapShot]

Lightening the I Fund Load, bullish in US Stocks for early May. Going to 40 C Fund, 40 S Fund, and 20 in the I Fund.

[CheapShot]

Moving 100% to the I Fund for Monday AM.

[CheapShot]

Moving 80 to G Fund, 20 to F Fund, hate the F Fund, but maybe I can steall a couple of pennys. Hope to hold onto some C, S, and I Fund profits. Was hoping the I Fund would take off, but it didn't.

[CheapShot]

Moved to 100 I Fund effective Friday AM looking for a bounce.

[CheapShot]

Know when to hold'em, know when to fold'em, know when to run, I'm running with my tail between my legs... Wheels told me I was day eraly last week, it appears i was at least 4 days early. I'll wait til the dust settles, 100 G Fund, did change my allocations though to 100 I Fund.

[CheapShot]

Licking my wounds back in 100%, from 100 G to 20 C, 30 S, and 50 I.

[CheapShot]

Moved from 20 C, 30 S, 50 I. Moved to 20 G, 80 I.

[CheapShot]

Moved from 20 G & 80 I, to 20 G 40 C & 40 S, not a happy camper hopefully get a little bounce.

[CheapShot]

Moved from 80% stocks to 100% stocks, 20 C, 30 S, 50 I, hoping thye I Fund doesn't climb to fast to quickly.

[CheapShot]

Moved from 20 C 30 S 50 I to more international 10 C 20 S 70 I, hopefully the rally today doesn't fizzle

[CheapShot]

Moved to 100 G

[CheapShot]

Moved from 100 G to 15 C, 50 S, 35 I, speculating on some afternoon profit taking, and an FV for the I, effective Monday AM

[Wheels]

Moved from 100 G to 15 C, 50 S, 35 I, speculating on some afternoon profit taking, and an FV for the I, effective Monday AM

They have FV-ed the I fund 3 days in a row. At some point they are going to have to correct it and let it go for a bit.

Dave
<><

[CheapShot]

Move Today from 15 C, 50 S, 35 I to a modest 30 G, 20 F, 10 C, 40 S. Trying a little Nip & Tuck, still trying to nip at some small gains while I tuck a little away. By the way i did put 20 in the F Fund so everyone else should probably sell F, I don't think I have made a penny in the last 2 years in the F Fund.

[CheapShot]

Moved before noon, 50 G, 20 F, 10 C, 10 S, and 10 I, not sure where the market is going, I'll protect and spread out a little.

[CheapShot]

Wondering where I have been, I think I fell off the face of the earth, while everyone else was making money I was spending a ton on getting married, and marrying off my daughter next week. Well with what I have left I am keeping 30 in G, 20 into C, 20 into S and 30 into I, no rhyme or reason, just figured it wasn't making money where it was at.

[mlk_man]

Congrats to your daughter and condolences to you!! :p

[CheapShot]

Moved 80 into G Fund, 20 into I fund probably for just a day, I mean't to do it yesterday, but spaced it.

[Wheels]

Hopefully there is still a little money to be made in this Bull, 20 into G, 60 into C, and 20 into I. Fingers Crossed

Ah. Someone has capitulated after sitting in the G for a while. If just a few more would do it then the hammer should fall.

[CheapShot]

Oh I don't think I'll be here to long, hopefully a two or three day ride, maybe up until election day, then I'll go back and hid into my little cubby the G Fund. Then wait for the election thing to settle a day or two and I'll jump back in with both feet.

[CheapShot]

The world's a nicer place in my beautiful balloon
It wears a nicer face in my beautiful balloon
We can sing a song and sail along the silver sky

The road to the top is full of potholes and obstacles, have no fear my brother I will arrive at the top, I just hope you don't hurt to bad when I'm stepping on you along the way....

Went to 85 I today Europe looks good for the week, the dollar seems to be rebounding today on the CPI news, but I beleive it will be short lived, after the BoE responds the dollar will go back to from which it came. I also left 15 in the S Fund, Glad to hear from you again Wheels..

Happy Birthday!! :D

[jpcavin]

Happy Birthday CheapShot! Whomever and wherever you are. :D

[Cactus]

Happy Birthday. Wow, no post since mid June 2007. Looks like you died in the 2008 crash. Real sorry to see that. :(

[TSP-roulette]

Happy Birthday Cheap Shot. Darn it!!, 10 year absence; have to agree with Cactus, that 2008 crash was a
real ballbreaker. If you took a hit hope you recovered, good luck with investments and tread lightly.
