Re: PIP

I am completely new to this and have had my TSP for 16 months. My PIP for the past 12 months ending 12/21/2012 was 10.11%. I am open to ideas and strategies to increase that number.

I'm assuming 10.11% is good????

Some say if you beat the S&P 500 8% yearly average you are doing good. It really comes down to your expectation and goals.

Well, compared to mine, yeah. But there are many people here who have done better than 10.11%. That's why I'm here too. I think with the help of the good people here I can do better. Of course in the end, the decisions are yours.

This is a good place. Just poke around the site. Ask questions, people are very helpful here I've found. Good luck and again, welcome!

argyle64,

10.11% is great. In reality it is the long term averages that count. If you hold to 10%/year you will do amazing. At 8% you will do quite well.

One thing to remember, a marvelous year like 2012 will be balanced by a crappy year like 2011. Many great years like 2010 will be partially offset by a dumper like 2008. All in all, sitting in the 'C Fund' should net you 10%. Anything over that (long term) is happy times - sometimes called alpha. You just have to remember that the S&P500 (C Fund) bounces around a lot. That is why it might be best to accept a lower return for a more smooth ride.

I think it depends on when you enter and leave...

I am thinking that buy and hold is not all that good of an idea unless you put the money in at the bottom and take it out at the top... If you know what those are, I would love for you to share...
