TSP Talk Weekly Wrap Ups on Thrift Savings Plan funds performances and other market insights.

  1. TSP Talk Weekly Wrap Up - The Early Exit


    The market favored the G-fund last week. All of the TSP funds outside of the G-fund were down by the end of the week. Tuesday was the only day for the bulls, especially if they held the C-fund. The C-fund gained 1.12% on Tuesday alone yet suffered a loss to some degree the other four days of the week. Anyone who held the C-fund and moved to the G-fund on Tuesday would have locked in a weekly gain of over 1%. Only one member among TSP Talk made that move this week: Booster.

    The I-fund's Success

    March belongs to the I-fund, so far. The less popular I-fund was the TSP fund to hold through the first full week of March. The I-fund accumulated a gain of 1.79% over the five days. Meanwhile, the C-fund netted a loss of 0.23% while the S-fund's gain was a mere 0.15% for the week.

Five TSP Talk AutoTracker members were able to get even more out of February. These five members stood out among the hundreds of other TSP Talk AutoTracker members, but one was an outlier among them.

  4. TSP Talk Weekly Wrap Up - The Promise of Nvidia


    This week taught us the market is clinging to the promise of the AI industry. Indices are reaching new highs thanks to a single company's earnings and forecasts. This week C-fund investors were not holding the S&P 500 but were bound to the market's reaction of its favorite report card: Nvidia.

  5. TSP Talk Weekly Wrap Up - One Day of Stock Exposure


    This week was one to give any stockholder whiplash. The latest Consumer Price Index came out Tuesday and its higher-than-expected reading sparked a sell-off that was easy to mistake for the start of a deeper correction. But instead, stock indices bounced back amply on Wednesday — this was most true for small caps and the S-fund. Prices continued higher on Thursday, but the C and S-funds ended the week with losses on Friday.

    The I-fund's positive return on Friday pushed its
