    Futures are wishy washy this morning.

    This has been obvious over that passed few weeks.

    I didn't share his enthusiasm for sell-offs, corrections or bear markets, but I did learn a lot from him. It takes courage to stand in the way of declines. Those steadfast investors who subscribe to wealth over time are the stalwarts of the markets, everyone pays their dues.
    Probably the biggest Perma-Bull I knew was Birchtree (Snort). I spent part of the day reading post from mid 2008 to mid 2009. Good lord they were unfazed. I have to remind myself there were investors before me and there will be investors after me.
    I think this thing holds today.

    There are folks who like this choppiness. Buy a down day, sell an up day and bang, 1-2% gain on the month. Hitting it correctly is all together a different story.

    I'm not a fan but I see the attraction. Weather moving in for Eastern Half of US starting tomorrow, this tends to move the markets temporarily as well.

    I am still anticipating more risk than reward over the next month or so, no moves for me. Of course I reserve the right to change my mind.

    The problem with doing that recently, at least in the TSP, is down mornings turned into strong closes and strong mornings become afternoon sell offs. Frustrating!

    2 IFT's a month is frustrating but having to make one in the current market conditions before noon is irritating.
    May the force be with us.

    2 IFT's used to irritate me. Been a conversation on here for as long as I can remember. I would imagine that those limitations help as much as they obstruct. Probably keeps those that treat their TSP like the a slot machine from destroying one of the legs of their retirement. Not much comfort to those that make informed decision though.

    I've just moved more money into significantly better tradeable accounts. Without the tax advantages but I don't mind.
