How do you calculate your investment returns? Money, or Quicken, or something else? Welcome and good investing.
No true barn burning method to my madness. I tend to stay pretty diversified and make some moves when the price is right. This is my first post here with a portfolio that is currently up 7.95 for the year --->
G 15%
C 35%
S 25%
I 25%
Back on dry land for awhile so time to see how some of you have managed 14%+ gains so far in '07!

Welcome. Don't forget to start a "Long651 Account" thread in the "Members' Accounts (no chat)" forum above this one if you want to be tracked. This "Long651's Account Talk" thread in the Member's Account Talk" forum is for discussing your moves/allocation (or for just about anything else you want to talk about.) The "Members' Accounts (no chat)" is exclusively for your actual allocation, like you've posted above, for tracking.
Good Luck.
Qibovin,
Our new web buddy is still in his probationary period. He must hit the required number of post before requesting a thread in the tracking thread.
Good luck, long651. I see you have had a decent gain for the year. Keep up the good work.
PM "EWGuy" when you hit the majic number. (I think it's 25 post)
Welcome!

Thanks for the welcome and the details all.
After reading what others are doing this morning I am feeling awfully contrarian today. My signs say International is still on sale and Interest rates aren't tweaking my panic button "yet".
So we will see what happens. Good luck all...
FYI ...Ocean is handling the tracker now. Contact Ocean when you are good and ready to get tracked.
Check out the rules here.

Good Luck Long!
Welcome to TSPTalk Long651. This site is full of information, and helpful members, that will help you along in your TSP account and in many financial aspects of investing.
Ocean is working on the next generation automatic tracker, whereby each member enters their own IFT into a Web based form. I’m still running the weekly tracker until such time that the new Auto Tracker is up and running. I enter the fund prices and each member's IFT into a Web form. When the fund prices and all IFTs are entered, I submit the data for entry into a MYSQL database. I then generate the TSPTalk spreadsheet calculator from this Web based database.
A member must first have a minimum of 25 posts to be eligible for an account thread and be in the weekly tracker. The eligible member must send a PM or email to me, or a moderator, to request an account be opened in their name.
Man you would think this was a paid membership site with all of the personal attention and assistance I received today
Thanks for making me feel at home and making sure I have a grasp on everything there is to offer here.
I would love to say more, but for now I have to get back to sticking pins in my bond yield voodoo doll....
long651,
The welcome wagon is usually more prompt than this. I see your first post was 6-16, you slipped under my radar. EWGuy was Johnny on the spot.
So again, welcome to our group.
