Re: [TSP_Strategy] Re: [TSP_Strategy] Re: G fund for the weekends/holidays — extra yield?

 

If you take a longer view than one year, you will have more positive days than negative. You are more likely to trade back in at a loss. Does that counterbalance the gain from G? I don't know.

If you request a transfer to C/S on Sunday, you will buy into the funds at the Monday closing price, right? How does staying out of C/S 12 days each year figure into your calculations?

You can't compare one day, that's anecdotal. We would need a statistical comparison. I was referring to three-day weekends in particular, not a one day holiday in the middle of that week. That situation would not make sense. And, yes, if the timing was consistent, I may think about moving to the G fund on a Friday at the end of the day and moving back into the S/C funds on Sunday to be back on Monday by noon.
