April Contest in Progress

How'd they do that?

The current leader in the April standings made a remarkable maneuver to lock in yesterday's gains.

Skipper made their first move of April on Tuesday, moving from 100% G-fund to 100% S-fund. This alone was fine placement putting them in the best seat for the mega rally on Wednesday. But, while the DWPCF (S-fund) was down modestly Wednesday morning, they made their second and final IFT of the month moving them back into 100% G-fund.

So, they soaked in the S-fund's 10.08% gain yesterday and are back in the G-fund during today's hand back. The DWCPF (S-fund) is down 5% for the day with 10 minutes left until the TSP trade deadline.

That’s the move I want to find. Thanks Skipper! Will be watching!

We're moving into the second half of April and Skipper's return still stands soundly at the top.

The next nine returns below are impressive as well.

Only today's and tomorrow's action are left in April.

NtvTxan sits at the top of the April standings with a 12.33% return for the month.

April non-premium standings

Skipper had the top seat for most of the month, but will need a sell-off in stocks to get back on top, although I doubt they are complaining much about a +10% gain while sitting in 100% G-fund for 95% of the month.



We give out prizes to the top 5 returns and this race is tight.

This has been a deciding month. Four of these members listed above are also in the top ten of the 2025 AutoTracker standings. This includes MRJ who is the current leader in 2025.
