Fk that. I’m not buying it. I bet we have a massive drop in value soon after midterms. We can’t just kick the economy, or fudge numbers, or revise them down so many times and just pretend the market only goes up. We never even had a sustained downturn yet. I am not buying yet. It feels like the market makers are waiting until retail has bought up all the dips and then will unload and the market dumps.

So…you missed the rebound. Yikes.

No OP. Nobody knows whether we hit the bottom or not and no one knows what's coming in the future. However, "slow and steady" always beats "trying to time the market" strategy.

We tried, but OP clearly is smarter than everyone else and will come out ahead.

No doubt there is more pain coming, but we can’t predict when, so we have to ride it out. If I could predict, it’s whenever Trump leaves office (in whatever manner that is) because rich people are happy when he’s in office allowing them to grift from everyone.

Hahaha. Ok and you timed the sale perfectly prior to that? Do you understand the luck involved in that in such a short time period? It’s just so dumb and pure gambling.

Yes, moron. I sold in mid Feb just as Deb Crown had everyone piling into I fund. My TSP is up 8% YTD not including today and my Roth IRA is up 6% YTD including today. S&P only up 4ish. Total assets half a mil for the other moron. Please hold my beer while I take another victory lap.

As in 500k? That's all you got?

so with typical internet exaggeration like 50k. You're trolling big time at this point and it's clear. Are you are going to trade every 5% move from now until retirement? Or are we still totally f'd and you secretly are selling. It's all BS.

You're both nasty people. I'm 40 and didn't even work (so couldn't contribute) for a decade to stay home with my kids. I now work part time. I think 500k is pretty good in such circumstances!

If you didn't work for a decade, I doubt you have 500k. The raw $$$ amount doesn't matter. It's the attitude that a retirement account is some play money to gamble with vs having an actual plan.

the fking strait of hummus is still closed. I’m not convinced we are in this bull era. I don’t care what you cucks thinks. We are not done with market dips. I’ll buy C and I when I’m good and ready.

Nobody cares. It's your money, do whatever you want to do with it. My TSP is at 2.7 mil at the moment. I am continuing on.

Your risk profile is already high by being in 100% I.

Going to G makes no sense.

As long as you’re not retiring within the next 5-10 years, stay invested in C S or I

I’m saying for like a month or whenever things calm down a bit. Move it to G and have it safe. Basically we had a massive red day yesterday in the market. It feels like we could see more massive red market days based on all the craziness. Then move it back to I after a few big drops in value on red days. and hopefully you can exchange G for I and you’ve bought stocks cheaper. then hold I fund for another few years until values on C fund have gone down in P/E value compared to international and you switch back to C. You see where I am going with this right? It’s called a macro and holistic look at current market conditions and attempting to time the market. Oh no! Who would even consider that!? My intuition is telling me after so many bullish days a recession is coming soon and coupled with all the other nonsense…I might just throw it in G for a few months to see. So what if I miss out on on some potential green days.

As my financial person would say this is not the race track or black jack table. Investments don’t work well when “played”
like a game

You will have a pension. Why put money in G fund?

You’ve lost this one dude. Time to go back to your original gig of pushing gold like you’re on a Fox News commercial.

The strait is not open according to the media. I’m going to jump back in to a C and I mix on Monday when the market is down on this news. I’ve pretty much learned market timing is hard.

Gold is going to break $6,000 though in the next couple years. Maybe even $8,000 as JP Morgan predicts now. Stagflation is still on the horizon.
