Hey Guys...Would love to hear all your opinions on this...Im almost exactly 2 years from retirement and have a little over 200 grand in the TSP...I am currently in the 2010 L fund...I know the stock market is slowly coming back...Should i leave it there ? Go to the G fund? Or go after some of the bigger money that might come our way before i actually retire...Thanks

Welcome Dave!

With 2 years to go before retirement and the market indexes having already run 30% to 40%, right up to the 200-day movng average, I would tend stay on the cautious side.

Good luck!

Lets say U go after the bigger $, war breaks out in a nice oil rich country and the market takes a run for shelter. How long will it take you to recoup?
