Thread: Tally for June 06

Sugar and Spice are leading the Rev Comparison list.

Goes to show, two heads are better then one

"Ouch!

Griffin's still leading the pack.

RevShark's making a move.

What happened to SystemTrader?"

Quit, opened his own TSP site!!!

I'm sending my moves to FundSurfer for his monthly and longer-term tallies. I like the idea of having a third party verify results. I also approached www.timertrac.com about this, but they weren't willing to track TSP returns/services.

I can send my returns periodically to Rokid if he wants to include them in his YTD and "since Jan 31" numbers.

Question, Rokid. What does the red highlight mean in the YTD column in the PDF's?

I don't believe it's right for you to have a pay site and continue to have your return posted here. Perhaps we should change this site to SystemTraderTalk.com?

Griffin is/was beating you, maybe he should start a site? I think you've used this site for you own advantage long enough. There's no I in team. Maybe it's time you just go.

JMHO,

That's interesting...

In the rest of the trading/investing world people beg for transparency. They want nothing more than to see a trading system, pay site or self-proclaimed guru allow a third party to verify their results. That's the whole raison d'etre for sites like www.timertrac.com and www.collective2.com.

Unfortunately, nothing like that exists for TSP pay sites. If there were, I'd sign up immediately. Since there isn't, I'm willing to be tracked here without ever publicly posting my URL or giving details about my site.

Last I checked, you don't make the calls here, but if Tom decides to take your advice, I'll comply. I've always followed the rules of this site.


Peace,
ST

...isn't ST saying he will be posting so that his returns can be monitored? I can understand the verification tracking, but wouldn't posting those moves be like Rev Shark having a pay newsletter but posting moves for the general public?
If ST is going to do `moves under the table' to Tom to be included in the tracking process, then maybe this would be a source of income for Tom & the site??? People buying into his newsletter would be like the TSPers who buy into Rev Shark's or any other sites: it doesn't detract from TSPTalk as loing as they don't announce that; also who cares whether someone is making moves based on Rev Shark's advice or not, or
with ST?? I just want all of us to have incoming funds Everyday, Whichever way - !!!

It's just an indicator that the YTD return doesn't cover the entire year. Originally, I was only producing the Tally Ranking for people who started at the beginning of Jan. However, I received a number of requests from people who wanted to be included even though they had started at some later point in Jan. Therefore, I've highlighted those partial YTD returns in red.

For example, according to the Tracker, you started being tracked on 9 Jan. Therefore, I've highlighted your YTD return in red. Let me know if that is incorrect.

You have it exactly correct, Rokid. Thanks

Here's a thought. We could set up an account that represents the average of all TSP investors, with allocations to each fund in proportion to the percentage of the system total each holds. Are these figures available at TSP.gov?

The value would be, we could then see how we did as a group. Knowing the total dollar-amount invested in the program, we could say, "Federal employees made (lost) $XX in the last six months." Or whatever.

Here are the figures as of Dec 31 2005, 39G 6F 40C 8S 7I.

Edit -- That gives a weighted return of 1.87% on the 160 billion $$ total invested, so far this year.
