Mr. Perfect

[fordest]

Mr. Perfect is loving the I fund for a few days now. Mr. Imperfect is looking longingly at yesterdays S fund loss, but can't quite get there.

Mr. Perfect - G to C on 9/10 to I on 9/12 - #50181 68.12%
Mr. Imperfect - F to I on 9/5 to F on 9/10 - #50258 -38.21%

Mr. Imperfect had to run to G. But Mr. Perfect is staying put for now.

Mr. Perfect - G to C on 9/10 to I on 9/12 - #50181 71.45%
Mr. Imperfect - F to I on 9/5 to F on 9/10 to G on 9/20 - #50402 -38.38%

No surprise that Mr. Perfect ran for the hills. But Mr. Imperfect needs a bigger string of bad days to get out of G.

Mr. Perfect - G to C on 9/10 to I on 9/12 to G on 9/24 - #50509 72.64%
Mr. Imperfect - F to I on 9/5 to F on 9/10 to G on 9/20 - #50402 -38.36%

Have you been following 50509 to the tee, and have your actual TSP returns been %72?

Thanks

No.

#50509 was just created this morning. This entire thread is dedicated to finding the best possible moves year to date. Mr. Perfect represents what would have been possible if you had done everything.... well... perfectly. And of course, just based up to today. Tomorrow, that strategy might change. In fact, it's surely going to be different by the end of the year.

Mr. Perfect made it back to I-Fund, and I put Mr. Imperfect back in F. According to my spreadsheet the F run was lower than the G run, but TSPCalc said they were the same. Probably rounding errors on my part. But in F he saves a move. We will see what happens today.

Mr. Perfect - G to C on 9/10 to I on 9/12 - #50602 72.80%
Mr. Imperfect - F to I on 9/5 to F on 9/10 - #50603 -38.36%

Mr. Imperfect made a big move today. Shook things up quite a bit. S-Fund has become his home after yesterdays loss. Mr. Perfect is getting comfy in I.

Mr. Perfect - G to C on 9/10 to I on 9/12 - #50602 73.09%
Mr. Imperfect - F to I on 9/5 to S on 9/12 - #50616 -38.54%

(I think that is a song somewhere ...)

Mr. Perfect making some changes today. I-Fund's loss prompted a move to C later in the month instead of earlier. Mr. Imperfect went to G to hold those losses.

Mr. Perfect - G to I on 9/10 to C on 9/27 - #50657 73.20%
Mr. Imperfect - F to I on 9/5 to S on 9/12 to G on 9/27 - #50660 -38.54%

Mr. Imperfect's turn to shake it up. This has been a month with a lot of big changes. Probably due to the wild swings up and down. Tomorrow's update will be the beginning of the month, so we won't see if this holds solid for September for a few days at least.

Mr. Perfect - G to I on 9/10 to C on 9/27 to G on 9/28 - #50741 73.24%
Mr. Imperfect - F to S on 9/5 to I on 9/27 - #50742 -38.88%

[fordest]

Mr. Perfect did end up staying in C through the month end. There's still time to make a change, but it seems much more solid now. Mr. Imperfect didn't change from I, but if you notice the strategy changed, that's because #7680 moved that day so I had to change that for Mr. Imperfect's back end.

Mr. Perfect - G to I on 9/10 to C on 9/27 - #50777 73.83%
Mr. Imperfect - F to S on 9/5 to I on 9/27 - #50778 -38.98%

Beginning of the month means grabbing at the biggest gains/losses so these moves are easy but may not be very permanent.

Mr. Perfect - C to F on 10/2 - #50838 74.04%
Mr. Imperfect - I to S on 10/2 - [url=hhttps://tspcalc.com/seasonal.php?ID=50837&years=04-18&benchmarks=7980]#50837[/url] -39.43%

[fordest]

The flipping and flopping continues. Mr. Imperfect was delighted to see what F fund did yesterday. Mr. Perfect still has moves so is safe to dip into S despite its jagged history of late. I feel G moves coming tomorrow then these two will need to start making some decisions.

Mr. Perfect - C to F on 10/2 to S on 10/3 - #50981 75.12%
Mr. Imperfect - I to S on 10/2 to F on 10/3 - #50982 -39.76%

[fordest]

What a day! Mr. Imperfect had so many choices. Mr. Perfect only had one.

Mr. Perfect - C to F on 10/2 to S on 10/3 to G on 10/4 - #50989 75.13%
Mr. Imperfect - I to S on 10/4 - #50990 -40.23%
