I notice Andy is listed on the quarter leaders and that his March total is 3.58% but then he is not listed amongst the March leaders. What am I missing?

Yes, I should have mentioned that I only listed people once in order to show more people. It is top down. If they were listed in an upper table they were not available for a lower listing. Since I'm attaching the whole list, I should probably list just the top five in several categories and be done with it. I have not landed on a format for the Tally that I'm totally happy with. I'm always open to suggestions.
 
FundSurfer,
To me it looks like SHOW-ME should be #2 for the "Leaders for March" with a 3.95% return and bump me down. I do appreciate the work and time that you and M_M put in to make this happen.

OK,
I just read your reply to Wheels. I guess I should ask questions first before I shoot.

Hi Fundsurfer,

First, thanks for all the work you put into this. It must be a beast to maintain.

I have a suggestion, since you asked. Overall I think this is a great presentation of a lot of data. But, I wonder if the policy of showing people only once is the best way to display the results? It would be simpler for you, and perhaps more informative for others, to just show the top performers for each time range. It would make the "top performers" tag easier to interpret. For example, I may ask "who did best in March?" Quickly glancing at your summary, I may miss that ShowMe had the 2nd best March, unless I carefully examine the table above it and note he was excluded from the "Top of March"
list because he was already on "Top 12 Months" list.

As a user, I am not sure what the advantage is to limiting each TSPer to only one "top performer" table.

Just food for thought. Thanks again for keeping up with this.

I just sent out the weekly tracker with the new allocations for each L fund and also included the monthly totals for everyone.

Sorry Fundsurfer, forgot to do that this time so I guess it meant more work for you....................:blink:

Happy returns,

Here are the L fund returns:


Last Qtr
Mar & YTD
L2040 1.98% 5.74%
L2030 1.77% 5.13%
L2020 1.54% 4.51%
L2010 1.18% 3.52%
L-Income .64% 2.01%
 
Sounds like a consensus. Include top performers and don't worry about multiple listings.

I'm thinking that a standard listing might look like:

Top 5 for the month, Top 5 for the preceding 3 months, Top 5 for the year, and Top 10 for the previous 12 months.

I'm listing 10 for the prior 12 months because this seems to me to be a more useful list than the others. Opinions? I'm thinking that this would be the maximum number of list I'd like to do, if you'd like to see an additional list suggest which of the list I've suggested that you would delete.
 
BTW, several of you are over your e-mail quotas and the tracker is being returned. The tracker is over 5MB so if you have a small e-mail capacity, you may want to sign up for a free e-mail with yahoo or hotmail.

Yes, Mlk, your trackers are being read - I suppose most of us figure someone has already advised you of any problems...

Leaders for March

To whom it may concern,

The name at the top of this list has GOT to be wrong. This kind of information will not only discredit this list but may sway people into thinking that this is some kind of spoof site. I think that name at the top should be masked or deleted in order to maintain credibility. Perhaps even banned altogether from the entire site should be an option. Just my two cents.
 
The funny thing is almost all the top returns so far in '06 have been from newer members. Of course, time will tell which ones will continually outperform. The longer these returns are tracked, the more meaningful they will be. And we'll probably all start putting less emphasis on monthly performance when we see how much variance there is in the monthly leaders.

Having said that, kudos to our top performers. Sugar must have the good Rev's attention by now...

I completely agree with systemtrader. I hardly pay any attention to the monthly numbers. I pay attention to the top performers from last year and the top performers for the previous 12 months (this essentially adds techno and cowboy).

Some observations about '06 leaders so far. Most were invested in early January when many were on the sidelines expecting a repeat of last year. Most are long term hold with heavy S-fund and I-fund. Both of these funds have out performed everyone except namor.

BTW. Namor isn't a new member, and he has been kickin butt. He's on a vegas hot streak.
