Those TSP investors who decide to try and time the market to buy at low prices and sell at high prices are apt to find the task is not easy--just as it is not easy to beat the odds for the gaming tables in Las Vegas or Atlantic City or Biloxi. Generally, those investors that diversify their portfolios and keep a balance between stocks and bonds will do better over the long run than those that try to buy and sell in anticipation of a market rising or falling.
