As of today my MTD is 1.45% and YTD is 1.80% after I had a -2.12% at the end of the first quarter. I can't complain. That would definitely add up to a good year.

Looks like I will be in "G" until the end of the first week of June or second week. Going on travel next week. Listening to some the various websites that may be a good thing. GL to all the shakers and movers. May the Force be with You.

I know that we need to stay the course and our TSP investments are for the long haul. It is unfortunate that we have been restricted to only 2 good moves a month. It has handcuffed all of us from the ability to follow the market trends. Because of the IFT restrictions I moved what little I have earned over the last 20+ years into the G (into "protect mode"). For right now I think it was a good move. Before the move I was 1.80% YTD (1st quarter I was at -2.12%). After going into protect mode I dropped to 1.47% 9can never seem to move on the up side) . If I had stayed the course I would be sitting at 1.14%. At least for now I am glad I made the move. Lets hope I can catch the wave everyone is talking about sometime in June. GL to all.

10:21pm EDT Cleveland, Ohio. Just saw the space station pass overhead. She had a slight red tint and quite bright. Very cool.

Starting to agree with most of the posts and information I am reading. Sounds like the bubble is getting ready to burst. I hope everyone is in their safe zone this week.

Remember ours troops and have a safe Memorial Day.

Everybody should read this post from optionman. If you want to make money in TSP.

Then read my response in optionmans account. I wish I had his wisdom in 2007.

I've been doing "stop loss" in my tsp account for years. I try to handle it as if it was a regular trading account and not be greedy. When I get greedy or panic and ignore my stops, I lose.

Haven't posted in a few days. Watching the rally from the G fund. Still slightly ahead if I had stayed in C/S/I. Waiting to see how next week sets up before using the first of my June IFT's. GL to all.

Shuttle is on it's way to a two week mission with the Space Station.

SPACE PLUMBER RIDES!

A tribute to this magnificent feat..

What a great vid! Do you remember what were you doing when that first step was taken on the moon?

The Magnificent Century for the USA. YES!

Disheartening though, to think that even with all the money spent, in the 21st Century we are still using the same technology that got us there - riding on the back of a rocket. And that is WWII German technology Von Braun brought us. We have made no progress in human space travel, despite all the spinoff benefits it has brought us. We need to look ahead to look beyond....think outside the box.
