Thread: nnuut's Account Talk

Don't know about the FED I can't seem to predict what they will do next, but that was their first reaction to the Sub Prime problem, they are way past that now, but could use it again if needed, they only have so many tools and don't want to use them all, then what?!

oh, thought you would say they ARE tools? yuk yuk. So, you seeing a .25 cut for October? I'm guessing that's what everyone is expecting so, it won't happen, right?

I would guess .25, but Ben Burntankle has been catching so much hell for going .5 the first time it might encorage him to let it ride? The dollar dropped like a rock~~!Attachment 2230

Nnuts and CC:

Congrats on hanging in there for today...See you guys in the F Fund tomorrow..

FS

I'll be there, but you know how the "F" fund is! I don't want to talk about it, can't control my language!!

I don't know if my channel boundries are exactly right on the below chart, but it looks overbought to me? On the otherhand this could be the start of another Breakout for tomorrow, but I don't think so.

I was wondering if anyone has ever looked into the differences
we experience between the TSP Return %'s vs. the Index's and
ETF's which I use for tracking. This is just another tool I
use in the decision making process. Where the SPX or C-Fund is
very consistant (within a penny), the EFA or I-Fund fluxuates
to a greater degree. It's understood that fees and currencies
play a part in this, but something interesting occurs from
time to time.

Specifically, The I-Fund sometimes lags behind the EFA %
results. Other times it pays out a greater % then the EFA.
The disparegies always come in line to keep them consistant
with each other.

Here's an example:
On Thurday I-Fund Return % (accum) owed the EFA approx- .15%
or .04 cents.
On Friday the I-Fund disparegy grew to .51% or .13 cents.
On Monday the I-Fund disparegy grew yet again to .58% or
.15 cents.

When the I-Fund has a losing day, it will make up for the .58%
by losing more then the EFA will. The interesting (and fun)
thing that happens is when the EFA owes the I-Fund, that tends
to be a big plus for I-Fund shares.

Am I just OCD or has anyone ever took notice of this.
