Hello All! :smile:

Long time, no post. I hope you guys are hanging in there! It's been a rough ride, hasn't it? But, we'll continue to have our moments of explosive rallies like we did last week....

Sure did read it, but it didn't help after multiple attempts. The issue is with TSP.

That's also my issue.

What about the Thriftline?

Of course I haven't done an IFT over the phone in years, but can that still be done?

Boy, am I glad I rolled over my military TSP in Jun 2020 to TD Ameritrade. This sounds like a nightmare. I'm sure it will eventually get sorted out. But, still. I do have a very small civilian...

It's too early to tell just how severe it will be. Time will tell. But, this sell-off is more about a lack of confidence in The Fed than omicron.

Nice short covering rally into the close. But, who knows what Monday will bring. Keep both eyes and ears on The Fed. It is truly in the driver's seat.

God Bless :smile:

Just as I said... omicron will eventually begin to pop up in other states. Now, will Mr. Market react to the second US case of omicron in Minnesota?
...

Yeah... I'm hearing talk that this sell-off is more about a lack of confidence in The Fed than it is about omicron. Like I said earlier, omicron will certainly have a negative affect as more cases...

Hope you "old timers" are doing well! :smile: Pop'n in again to let y'all know I'm still alive-n-kick'n. :fing02:

As you know, Mr. Market is being affected by both The Fed and omicron. I wouldn't...

TD Ameritrade. I really like their Thinkorswim (TOS) platform. BTW... now awaiting that breakout above 56...

In early March, I began day/swing trading AMC. If you look at the chart, you will see that it basically trended between 8 - 15 until it finally broke out. That was easy money. I continue to day/swing...

Pop'n in to say, "Yo!" :fing02:

I've been super busy riding the AMC wave! :headbang:

Hope y'all are doing great! :beerchug:

God Bless :smile:

I hope y'all have been enjoying this rocket ride, which is destined to return to earth for a "refueling stop." This will be sooner rather than later. Over the past 4 weeks, the major indices have...

:fing02:

My warning on Monday was warranted. The DWCPF (S Fund) has been hit the hardest. Since yesterday, the DWCPF is down 4.96%. What will tomorrow bring? A bounce, perhaps? Good luck with your $$$!

God...

The VIX did not breakdown. At least not yet. The DWCPF led today's selloff with a 2.68% haircut. But, will the selloff continue into tomorrow? We shall see.

God Bless :smile:

You could be correct. :fing02:

Of course, that article is from 12 Feb. The VIX dipped below 20 the same day it was published. Perhaps any predicted action from fund managers has already taken...

/// WARNING ///

The VIX is quite low @ 18.88, and one cent off of its 52-week low of 18.87.

God Bless :smile:

"Hammer" time! :D

As long as you've recovered your losses, there is no shame in sitting on the sidelines until things settle down, especially with the uncertainty of the 10-year bond yield... which is currently on the...

Congrats on your retirement! I also play guitar (rhythm)... since 1983. Although I have 4 guitars, my go-to is a 1985 MIJ Fender Contemporary Strat. My influence is 80's metal/Metallica/Pantera.
...

My recent swing trades...

Sold ACAD @ 27.05. (Bought yesterday @ 23.87)

Sold TSLA @ 705.00. (Bought last Friday @ 590.06)

These will likely rise higher, but I could not resist pocketing the...

If you're looking for something outside of the TSP, you might want to consider ACAD (Acadia Pharmaceuticals). I made my first initial ACAD investment in 2010 @ 1.76 per share. I closed that position...

Hopefully you positioned yourself for the recent tech correction, and are now reaping the rewards. I know I am! :fing02:

God Bless :smile:
