    Jump into the TSP Tracker ! It's a great tool and you can compare your
    results to over 173 TSP Participants ! Just an idea ! You will need to
    send a PM to (i believe) EW_Ret. Again, good luck !

    OUCH!!! What happened to the "I" Fund? The chart didn't look that bad and we lost 27 cents a share. I guess I have a lot of learning to do.

    Morning all. Didn't lose too much yesterday (60% G, 20% F & 20% I). Hoping to get back to even before end of the month. Currently at 0.70% for the year. My low point was 5.05% January 22nd. I think my only system is just plain luck. Later!!!

    Nasa1974, I highly recomend reading some of the treads that explain FV.
    (Fair Value) concerning the I-Fund. It's not an exact science, but helps
    towards understanding the wild swings that the I-Fund demonstrates.
    Last but not least, there's Barclay, who manages the TSP Funds. Again,
    there's a lot of threads which believe that Barclay's responsible for many
    missed calls concern FV and thus, adding to my confussion as well. Hope
    this helps.

    OK, Now I probably should do some research but being a newbie maybe one of you old timers have the answers. Are the members of the of the TSP board picked by Congress? Does Congress have to approve any changes to the rules that cover our TSP? How many Congessmen and Senators are day traders? Really do not expect an answer to that one. My guess is that the board members are government employees or contractors to for the Government. If so why can't we ask the IG's office to investigate any wrong doing. That is what they are for. I am no lawyer but what the board has done does not pass the commen sense rule. If it looks like dog s*** and smells like dog s*** it must be dog s***. And instead of petitioning the board (they don't care) it is an election year and 4,000+ unhappy government employees = many votes for a presidental hopeful. Just some ideas. "Force field up again."
