Post Your "12-Month Personal Rate of Return"

Thanks. I'm aggressive on the IFTs when the market drops, but I take profits quickly to minimize the risk. 2-3 days in the S fund a month is my target max.
 
As of 01/03/12 PIP is 17.01%......which last month was 9.81% so i must have had a real drop in the month that just came off.
I will soon get to the point where i won't be putting 100% in the S fund, but starting to portion it more to protect a small percentage. I still have about 19 years, but dont want to put all my eggs in 1 basket. I have a 10 year pension from another source but not the ability to play with that like the TSP, so with that in mind, i can let it hang out a little with the S fund and not woory too much. Those of you that are closer retirement, what do you use to guage what you keep in G fund?
 
Is this what you get for sitting in G during a multi-month run-up?? :suspicious:

Your Personal Investment Performance (PIP) for the past 12 months ending 01/31/2012 is -3.99%.
 
If you beat the L fund that best represents your situation, then you did good. For most here, if you did better than 1.57%, then you beat the L2040 fund and this shows we are better traders than TSP thinks we are. Congratulations! :)
 
My Personal Investment Performance (PIP) for the past 12 months ending 01/31/2012 is 11.7%.

Only picked up 1.5% in January as it took me awhile to get out of my bear suit...:toung:
 
Your Personal Investment Performance (PIP) for the past 12 months ending 01/31/2012 is 6.19%.
Modest improvement.
Congrats GValdez.
 
Thanks everyone. Of course last month helped a ton but I caught a few ups and down just right starting in July. I ended getting caught up in work and mistimed some others in Sep but overall I thought I did pretty well. This page is a huge resource of information but so is paying attention to labor releases/consumer confidence/earnings reports/etc. If they have bad news, i jump right into F fund immediately and although I still lose some that day (while the IFT is transferring), it tends to work in my favor.
 
PIP

Currently ending 1/31/12 is 4.4% PIP

I have been as high as 32% in the past few years but had to take a break this last year because I moved across the country and got real busy.

It is great to be back though and I am ready to learn as much as I can and hit those returns again!

Fran, If you have made up to 32% over the past few years you may have something to share with us. Congrats.
