End of October Allocation Changes, 10-30-2014

.
10/31/2014 Morning Update:

I fat-fingered the S-Fund -- the correct value is in bold (51%, I had listed 59%).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Effective with the last day of the month, I'm moving my allocations to:

C-Fund:  39%
I-Fund:  10%
S-Fund:   51%

These are aggressive values, as nothing is being held in G-Fund.  My time horizon is longer than most (11 years), so I can afford to take a bit more risk.

If you are more conservative, allocations which include holding some back in cash are:

G-Fund:  25%
C-Fund:  29%
I-Fund:  7%
S-Fund:  39%

Equally-blended in the C-, I-, and S-Funds (e.g. 33% each) produced these results since 11/25/08:

For those of you who are following my movements, I use a timing system that is applied to the numbers above.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have made the changes in my TSP account.  As long as the changes are posted by 12:00 pm on Friday they will apply for October and will NOT count against the 2x transfers we can use in November.

As with all my postings, you are responsible for your own investments and I am not.  Please do your diligence, and please take ownership for your actions.
