When are you moving your tsp from C to G now to lock on value before the coming crash?

LOL. Have date and time for that?

I do. In fact, I’m basically the Michael Burry of this post. Here’s how it all plays out generally. Tariffs are not helping. They are causing layoff and price hikes. Wages aren’t keeping up. Bad employment data keep coming in. We see rate cuts to spur growth. That helps stocks in the short term. That also further causes inflation. Gold raises more. The market is in a frenzy for a while as QE is employed to prop up the market. It’s a sugar high. Foreign countries stop buying more of our debt. The whole time because of a “never back down or admit wrong doing mentality” learned from Roy Cohn there is more antagonistic erratic on and off bipolar trade policy and our countries continue to forge new trade partnerships. It’s a mess. The finally in a few years our overheated economy craps out for like however many years. Stocks drop in value. You can’t or don’t want to see it because any doubt can be waived off as “tds”.

But…do you have a date and time for that?

LOL. Don’t be rude.

Why, yes, chucklefks, I do.

Again:

Rate cuts will proceed. The market will rally for another year or so maybe a little more. Gold will continue to rise with it. Slowly but surely the real revised job numbers are released. The tariffs effects are in swing (unless SC stops them, even then he will try new methods of tariffs). The real inflation rate is revised and released. All told give or take a year or so and the market will come down, maybe a ton. I’m in gold mutual funds in the TSP MFW and will move those. Either way, I give nary a fk what you bone heads think. You’re most likely getting your news from nonsense sources and have no clue what is actually transpiring with trade, the dollar, gold, or really anything that doesn’t fit a rosy scenario. Also, the C fund might not just always “bounce back like it always does”. It’s looking a lot more like the I fund is the one to watch.

The guy who thinks he's the smartest person in the room ALWAYS ends up being the worst investor. Love it!

If I see a prolonged slide that appears to be the trigger for a broader crash I will have my gold financial instrument ready to buy stocks when they appear cheap enough.

You can stick with your plan to stay 100% C and that’s fine. If you need to retire in like 3 years, it probably won’t be, at all, but we’ll see.

Professor, you can’t or you won’t??

Buy the dip and don't fight the fed. The reckoning is not yet upon us.

If you know when a crash is happening, why would you need advice on an anonymous forum? With that knowledge you are essentially holding a winning lottery ticket. Cash out your entire tsp - put it in a brokerage - obtain as much margin as possible - buy spy put options that expire shortly after the crash you have inside info about and you can ride off into the sunset a multi millionaire.

Told us what? The S&P500 is at all time highs…

If I paid any attention to the people that have been saying the exact same thing year after year, I’d be much much worse off. You don’t know anything, and I don’t know anything except the S&P500 over the long term is extremely hard to beat…

I’m telling you again. Inflation and bad job numbers. Start accumulating gold ETFs like IAUM and hold them because this rally isn’t going to last. It could go a while longer but you want to be in a defensive position if you are close to retirement and need to pull money out of your S&P funds in a couple years. Anyone with a brain can see what’s coming.

At least you don’t know what you don’t know unlike the other…

I have many years in the govt and have the law enforcement rate, so I’m leaving most of it in C to ride it out. If your pension is tiny and you must have your TSP to make basic bills, then put it in a lifecycle fund.

FR. The pension gives me peace of mind to keep everything in C, maybe indefinitely, and just pass these stocks to my kids when I die to adjust their cost basis

Same here, though there isn't a step-up in cost basis for IRA accounts.
