Happy Holidays from a newbie

Hi - Just wanted to say hello and how much I enjoy TSPTalk. You guys and gals have got-it-going-on!

When I first started working for the government, one of the ole timers coerced me to contribute to the TSP C fund. 20 years later, I haven’t wavered and owe that ole timer (god rest his sole) a lifetime of gratitude. Now, contributing to the TSP is always the first advice I offer to new employees.

I would like to manage my nest egg more wisely. I know enough about the market and its indicators to be dangerous. I spend much of my time looking-up and studying ya’lls (yes, I’m from the south) acronyms and charts discussed in the TSPTalk threads. Anyone have a TSP/Market guide they would recommend for a greenhorn?

I consider myself a conservative Bull - Does that make me bearish??

Thanks in advance, Clay
