First of all I want to thank the creator of the web site and all of those who contribute their knowledge. I am new to investing and this site has been very informative. I have read a few books on investing to try to educate myself but there is so much more to learn. I also subscribed to the news letter on your site in regards to timing the market as well.

As a newbie, I have so many questions and I want to thank you for your advice in advance.

My situation:

I'm 40yoa and I've been with the Fed G for a little over 4 years now and have about 16 years left in the "G" as I am in a Federal Law Enforcement retirement system( FERS 6C).

I contribute 15k a year to my TSP which is my only retirement investment.
I would like to be aggressive in my investment stategy but have realistic return goals. Currently I am C: 30% S: 30% and I: 40% and I have used dollar cost averaging investment strategy since I began the TSP. Due to the volatility of the market over the last several weeks I have lost a considerable amount of money in the TSP.

1) Would you advise on reallocation now or wait for the market to re-adjust which I expect it to do?

2) Since you created the web site what type of return would dollar cost averaging give?
