    Got orders to Hawaii. Pretty excited about that. We were there from '15-'18 and loved it. We fly out in June, should be there for 3 years. Tampa was great but we are ready to keep it movin'. Gonna sell the house here and cash in on this crazy high housing market. Will probably invest most of those profits... Trading the markets in Hawaii can be tough because of the time zone. Markets open at 3:30 AM if I remember right, IFTs gotta be in before 6 AM... it's wild. I will say though, I did like waking up with a cup of coffee on sunday and having a live football game to watch first thing in the morning. That was pretty neat. Maybe I'll trade crypto more out there as those markets are 24/7.

    congrats on the move. I was there for three years as well, loved it the first year - not so much after, but only because I like to travel more than you're able to there. expensive but still a good place to be stationed.

    So glad I made this move so that I can now lose my money at a slower rate!

    Only 7 out of 600 people on the autotracker are beating the C Fund for the year. Pretty wild! Can I call dibs on the C Fund's prize if it finishes top 5?!

    Sure does! I am about 90% buy and hold these days. My trading account is much smaller than my TSP account, and is really there so that when I get the itch to trade, I don't make massive moves with my big money account.

    I saw the pop yesterday when The Fed started talking, but didn't realize we ran up that far later in the afternoon. Nice surprise to see those gains this morning along with futures being up. J Powell playing Santa this year.

    The C Fund is +4.44% from the S Fund since I made this move. That has worked out well so far.

    Wondering why financial stocks have such low P/E ratios when they have such high earnings. Makes me wonder if this is an extremely undervalued sector right now...

    I've seen it called both ways, but I'm mostly bullish on banks going forward. Valuations (P/E ratios) are still out of whack from COVID. It seems the bullish case is higher rates which allow banks to charge more to borrowers. But then again, high rates could slow the rate of borrowing so it might not work out.

    The very low interest rate environment we've been in since March 2020 has not been positive for banks net interest income, but refinancing has brought in $$ from the refinancing fees that people often overlook. Other factors that generate money include wealth management and credit card usage (which should rise as COVID shutdowns and stimulus wane).

    someone correct me if i'm wrong - but, I believe banks are permitted to cary certain debts as a plus. could that be reflected in the low ratio?
