I wish everyone good luck, it's sure going to be a bumpy ride...as Tom would say, keep your powder dry.

I have my doubts about the first line, the second line is probably true but I doubt we'll see the worst any time soon and the recovery will be very protracted.

Sure there will be a bounce, but when and for how long is anybodies guess...the reality is that we're losing TONS of jobs and the Bear will not hibernate for quite a while....

Been a while since I posted.... What amazes me is when I see articles wondering if we're seeing the bottom, or close to the bottom. Hey Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore...how can anyone...

I'm following James too. I'm just not willing to commit right now...I could retire in five years so CP is key. While the TA looks okay the news and fundamentals have me concerned...ya think? :blink:

My instincts suck this year. The only thing I got right was getting out of the market 1/10. I thought 1340 would hold, then to 1400, then back to the 1200s for an official bottom. I really can't...

Now this is really scary. We're now moving beyond the BS bailout, absolutely unprecedented....I know I sound like an alarmist but if this shell-game collapses forget recession, we'll see the first...

This is what I see. The recent roller coaster ride is due to the fact that the market has been so volatile that many have moved frequently on and off the sidelines. Typically, this is the time of...

Great post 12! I'm praying this thing doesn't get really ugly but sometimes I feel like I'm farting against a thunderstorm. :blink:

I hope this situation doesn't get any uglier, otherwise we may find that the TSP Board has failed in their fiduciary responsibility to assure that Barclay's has not jeopardized the Federal 401K to...

Been a while since I posted. I'd say this sums up my skepticism of my last post on the Anderson Report....

That would be me. I missed out on a great opportunity....Thirteen IFTs last year and I get tagged a frequent trader, only four this year BUT three last month so I couldn't move. Cost me quite a bit...

Norm,

Belated, but I hope you enjoyed your birthday. Regarding the smokes, I see every day how hard it is to quit. As a clinical pharmacist I've been skeptical for years that any medication would...

Sorry, did you see this post over on Corepuncher's thread? This girls been right on recently, if she's right I think we're headed down big time, just a question of how soon. What do you think?

Hey Show,

Off the subject. When I'm not here trying to figure out how to boost my retirement so I can retire earlier, I'm puttering in my garden or on my gardening website...living down here in...

Core,

Good post. Thanks!

Her last prediction was correct, no reason to think she's wrong this time...I can see myself sitting in F/G for quite a bit of the year.

I'm glad you're doing well. I sure would have loved to have been able to ride some of this stock rally but I'm trying hard NOT to get the dreaded letter...probably blown it anyway since my third move...

Boy, discussions across the board have dropped off dramatically...sure getting quite the closer we get to 3/31. :blink:

Tracey & Greg : Up in Smoke :D

Tracey, Greg and Andrew - The Three TSP Stooges : Financial Insecurity

So, what now? I'd still like to think the F Fund is a good place to be but I sure can't tell right now...is it possible we really have seen the bottom? I'm having a hard time believing that is the...

Good question. I hope so. I don't see where the fundamentals have changed much even though I was surprised by the Anderson report. While the Financials problems may be over soon I don't see much...
