This is the consensus of 5 strategies which have outperformed the Max(G,F,C,S,I) by at least % points, each year from 2004-Nov 2018, and without a single negative year.

Alternatively, I'd wait until the SPY:AGG ratio crossed its 5 day moving average to get back in.

Im hesitant to use tspcalc strats as history might not repeat. but i plan to real world back test #53846 in tspfantasy. just cant put much faith in the approach yet.

I'm in the G now and missed the blood bath. Following TSPCalc seasonal 54027 which has me back into the S Fund on the 17th....hoping 12squared's comment on the historical trends holds true in this un-historical year. Can't win if I don't play

Userque bailing on G and quietly jumps into S. Will he be at the top by the end of the day? Good luck!
