Re: Highly recommend

Re: Historical Data on New Site

tsp.gov only shows you your ytd starting form conversion date (like 26May2022) - present. That may be why you see +4.5% P.S. The new site sucks. I hate it.

Re: TSP loan for I bonds

Fidelity has a FIPDX fund, but there is some downside risk and I'm not sure if there is a minimum holding period, maybe not since it's a mutual fund?

Re: Using TIPS to hold your emergency fund?

I've been looking into Series I Bonds, they currently pay like 3.54 and may be going up again soon. You have to hold them for at least one year. Check out this site. treasurydirect.gov
