You mean bro ... but probably right.

I got an e-mail from TSP this morning. They apologized for drunk shopping on Amazon last night, and mentioned they had to borrow a “couple bucks” from me. They did promise to pay it back though.

Doesn't TSP actual not show your Fri wins/loses until Monday morning?

[smoghog4]

you can go to the tab that shows activity and put in the dates of activity when I put in the dates from February 8th to the 9th I show a loss even though the market went up. I'm going to call them tomorrow and see if they can explain it.

Cannot tell what smoghog4 is basing his "loss" comment on as he does not have a fantasy account. I Fund had a loss Friday but other funds had gains. If you are looking at 1 day, it is better to look at the account balance on each day. If you look at activity within tsp and use consecutive days, you will get a two day return. You can verify by looking at the beginning balance. For 2/8 to 2/9, the beginning balance is from 2/7. No clue why they do it this way...it just is.
