    Fair enough, but I'm confused by your response.

    I want to get into equities on a down day, when the price is lower at close. Or are you using inverse language here?

    I'm talking about losing some of your payday contribution on a down day. If you have your payday contribution going into equities, and it happens to deposit on a down day, then you will lose some of it. But, if you have it going into (G), then there is no chance of losing any of it. Just IFT out from there.

    I dig that strategy. Forgive me if this has been discussed here before.

    So I just got off the phone w/ TSP and did some data mining on my acct. to determine when exactly TSP is buying shares on Contribution days. For the last 6 months, my Posting dates have been payday exactly, meaning TSP is receiving my contribution funds from my agency sometime after noon on Wednesday which gives me the price of shares on the close that Thursday: every Thursday before payday. So knowing this, I suppose we could even try to time contributions: Let them slide in on a down week, put them in G on an up week.

    Thank you for the feedback! Although none of us can call it 100% of the time, it's nice to call it from time to time.

    For myself, I would just keep it simple and have my contributions go into (G). I did that even when Mr. Market wasn't in a crisis. But, of course, you should do what you think is best for you.

    I'd like to coin a term right now before it occurs. It's called the "Cuomo FOMO" affect/rally. This will occur when Gov. Cuomo announces that NY has reached its peak... has flattened the curve. A beautiful day it will be for all of New York. But, if you play the rally, be prepared to jump out of the market just as quickly as you jumped in on the news. It will likely be a short-lived rally just like last week's rally. Because by that time, there will be other "New York"s across the USA going through what New York is currently experiencing.

    The thought just came to me, and I had to entertain it.

    Another Chinese rip-off, this one of Starbucks. I wonder which ranking Chinese government "proletariat" had their fingers in that knock-off?
