Note that the above amount was before today's substantial gains.

Your Personal Investment Performance (PIP) for the past 12 months ending 11/30/2016 is 12.44%.

which is not as nice as many others like oceansideguy. How did you do that 29%? that's a great return and really better than all I am seeing.

Your AUTOTRACKER says you have a 2016 of only 14.21% but guess that could be missing all those sweet gains you had at end of 2015. Did Santa give you 15% in December last year?

No. This is how. There's a slight numerical error between my spreadsheet and the TSP reported 12 month return which at the moment I don't care to chase down as I don't work well with spread sheets after 6pm...

44% return for 2016. You're no rookie. What's your secret?

A combination of long term statistical analysis, a small set of market indicators, and for the end of the year a good educated guess that allowed me to pull everything out of the stock funds back in September, and put everything back in the day before the election (I was sitting at 29.7% for the year up to Sep 8th when I got out of the stock funds). I try to maximize the total return gain to return standard deviation over multiple years.
