    Agree on the chance of a 2% drive by gain as well as the risk far outweighs the reward. No argument here on the trend either. The NASDAQ is closing on 20% off the highs, clearly the biggest loser at the moment. I had 20% as my mark on the wall but I'm not sure the DOW or S&P get there, that fear and greed index is screaming.
    In Dog Beers I've only had two.

    Uh, nope...

    Not getting in... Only have a 10% allocation to the S-Fund. I'm thinking there is approximately 0% chance of me moving more into S/I anytime soon.

    I'm actually looking at reducing C.

    I am showing my confidence again.
    Lookin' up at the 'G Fund'!!!

    Bam! Im gonna do it.

    I’m jumping in and hoping to catch a little 2% bounce over a couple days, then will jump back out again.

    Moving to 40% C fund, and 60% S fund at the close of business on Wednesday.

    That P & F chart filled in nicely. Now lets jump in and catch a swing up- even if its just a quick short one.

    Good luck!

    I hate jumping in on a big possible up day and the news headwinds are in your face. However I am rooting for you.

    CRAP!

    This is the 3 1/2 % increase I was hoping to catch tomorrow. NOW WHAT? DO i go ahead and jump in? Or is it a day late and a dollar short? And will it cave back down tomorrow, or will we have a day or two more of increases??

    Jeeze. I don't know what to do now. Should I jump in?

    Ok- so, I’m out of trades for the month. But tonight I was able to do the famed “1% move”.

    The TSP software allows you to go in and round up to the next higher percentage.

    So, effective COB on Monday, I will be:

    G= 88%
    F= 1%
    C= 2%
    S= 2%
    I = 2%
    L Income = 2%
    L 2025 = 2%


    That puts a little more into play, whilst maintaining the biggest portion into safety until things stop being so crazy.

    Nice to know that still works. I tried it once but I must have been trying to add 1% to funds I didn't own or something. It rejected it.
