Pyriel: on 5/3 & 5/17 you have MM at 50%C that should have been 50%S.

Milkman, I found a couple errors, but I did not get to 1.5%. Would you recheck your spreadsheet versus your account? June 1 was a very good day, make sure you are not adding that to your total on your spreadsheet. I've made that mistake before myself. If you still have a different amount, e-mail me your spreadsheet, I'd like to figure this out.

Reality is a wonderful thing.

I think people who aren't having their accounts tracked publically should be strongly discouraged from ripping / antagonizing those who are.

Things are very different when you know everyone who wants to can see every transaction you make with your TSP account.

Pyriel, how are you calculating your return for the month and the quarter from your spreadsheet? You don't have a value for the end of the month (I've added one onto spreadsheet I use for the Tallyand calculate at COB 5/31). I'd bet the difference is in the dates you are using to calculate. Are you adding June 1 like milkman did? It was a very good day.

I tried it last night and it was a disaster. I decided to leave that up to you now. Spent an hour hour analyzing just my month and quarterly returnand could not figure out how to fix it. Can you redo mine (with monthly return) using the spreadsheet i attached (my total return and your total return is not matching)... Thanks...

Show me, i'll look at yours again.

Rod, have you had a chance to check your tracker that I attached? Is it different from yours?

MM, you did email me that I made a boo boo on that move. I'll recheck it again on my side...

I completely agree with Mike. Seems like someone is trying to stir up something. Before you start knocking on someone's return, you need to have a little history to back you up. People in the past have been banned for such behavior.

DMA has started an account so he can build a little history.

:shock:

I don't know how that happened. Past results do not forcast future returns. Thanks for the chart, it is pretty cool. Thanks Tom for the site.

I started the account on my first post here.

The allocations seem to match.

Finally figured out the problem. Had a date wrong (4/4/04 versus 4/4/05) which doesn't affect Pyriel's spreadsheet but does effect mine since I use lookup tables for fund prices. Anyway, I found the error. Your value for April changed significantly.

Pyriel, You had the same error as Rod. Same date was wrong as an '04 instead of '05.

Could ya cut down on the errors.

I am tired of saying:


Great job we all appreciate it.

Just kidding around. We do appreciate it, it must be eye numbing.

You. I read your assessment, and make my decisions based on your assessment even if I don't agree with your conclusions. Once Techno freaked me out of the market and it fell. Weird.

biggdog,

I started tracking you but I had to start you off as 5/24/05. Your post for 5/22/05 is confusing. Additionally, we can't track you for previous allocation if it is not posted. Right now, I got you for 0.77%. pm me your email add and i'll add you to the list of posters that i've been sending the trackers on a weekly basis.. good luck... You should show up for eom Jun...
