That's a great chart.

I don't know about all that, but I'm going to short the VIX. (XIV)

It's a good question. Currently S Fund is underperforming C and I this month and year. Possibly the big day it had on Wed 7/19 got that 89%'s attention? MAYBE, somebody from this IFT class can come on here and share with us WHY and then get some rep points as a consolation prize.

I find it very disappointing that Mjedlin66 and Anne have negative rep points. If Rep points were an accurate indicator of user credibility then Sig and Timboslice would have a million points each. Negative rep points should only be given out by the Mods for abusive comments or violating the terms o...

That would be an understatement.

Mjedlin66...not sure how a member with such a full grasp and understanding of the TSP and with such fine returns has negative rep points? I'll try and help that after I'm done here. amazing how all the blabber mouths have mega rep points and followers yet $hit returns? Incredible. There's another wa...

Wow! Sorry to break it to you, Tomanyiron – whatever that is! Charts do NOT explain where stocks are going; they report where stocks have been. FUNDAMENTALS explain where stocks are headed – and they’ve been reporting I-Fund outperformance for LONG TIME. Actually Mr. Lanihan charts CAN tell you whe...

2017-03-30 (4).png Hopefully this works. I figured I'd show the relationship the dollar index has with the EFA. I see an obvious divergence, so if rate hikes or other currencies send the dollar up then beware I Fund or vice versa, if dollar stays cheap pile in I Fund. I know don't overthink this. T...

The zero's are fixed. Thx guys we're up to date. Not too shabby for a cost free opportunity to hone one's investing skills. I appreciate you.

TSPcenter can't predict day to day, but can arrange that all funds will have zero returns from yesterday. How cool if you lose a few percent and then just erase it. Sweet.

I believe my 1 true rep that was negative that I gave out was Tom-something or other. Afterward he made up or told people and they negative rapped me about 20 times in a row, INCLUDING the person who started this topic. " Tom-something or other " is probably me. Maui21Ice issued negative ...

With the president's proposed 20% import tax on goods from Mexico, I would pick S since it has less foreign exposure. With C, there are a lot of multi-national companies that could suffer. But I wouldn't rush in to either right now. Regulations cost the US economy $2 Trillion dollars per year. (For...
