Thread: Weekly Account Tally Talk

Question on the weekly tracker. Does the TSP Long Term Allocation refer to the aggressive one?

Yes. That's because the moderate and conservative approaches are not looking to maximize gains like the aggressive approach. Capital preservation becomes the focus.

I'll be out of town until 2 Jan. I'll submit the 2006 tally when I return.

Happy New Year!----Rokid

TSP Timing Newsletter (RevShark) return through 12/29/06:

December: +0.34%
Since Feb 1 inception: +10.88%

Congratulations to FundSurfer for generating the highest return in 2006 with a gain of 24.40% !

It was a close battle as there were full and partial year returns from a handful of members over 20%.

Pointman actually ended up with a higher return but he didn't start getting tracked until the end of March. Very impressive!

We'll get the full tally when Rokid returns after the holiday. Nice job!

Congrats FS. How did SystemTrader end up?

Milkman, he beat me by like 3%. I should have gone and stayed 100% I-fund in October when I was ahead of it, but I couldn't bring myself to do it.

Props to Fivetears, Georgiagal, and Pointman. All had a solid year last year and are starting this year off on the right foot as well.

Congrats to the top 2006 accounts! I was planning on sending the top 3 or 5 returns something for their achievement but I decided to go with the 7 accounts that were over 20%.

1 - Fundsurfer 24.40%
2 - Griffin 23.86%
3 - Mayday 22.23%
4 - Showme 21.81%
5 - sugarandspice 21.77%
6 - Georgiagal 20.96%
7 - FiveTears 20.23%

I'm going to get something like shirts, hats, or something else cool ordered once I get a final version of the new logo all set. It may take a few weeks to get that logo and an order for the merchandise completed. I'll contact the winners via PM once they are ready.

Thanks,
Tom

It just goes to prove that woman sense is darn good sense. And she is not starting out in the deep wet well like some other previous leaders.

My guess, and I hope I'm wrong for their sake, is that the ones who did well last year, and started well this year, have remained aggressive the whole time in spite of market concerns. That worked well, but they will be hurt most IF (big if) the market turns south.

It's the ones who can change gears who will be rewarded in that case.

G Fund F Fund C Fund S Fund I Fund
0.43% 0.00% 1.53% 3.14% 1.31%

I'm anxious to see how many beat what funds for January. Don't know if they will do the tally at 1/31 or at 2/2.

I believe I beat the C fund but certainly not the S fund, as of 1/31.

I just read above posts, and appreciate the offer of a reward, but truly I don't want anybody spending money on shipping anything, not to mention on the gift itself. I feel the other way, that I should be sending Tom and others gifts!

And yes, we are all trying to be careful this year. It would be a terrible tragedy to be beaten by the G fund at the end of the year.
