TSP Board is changing the I Fund's index

Re: TSP Board is changing the I Fund's index
Look at 189684, which is CAGR 24.86% and 8.66% StdDev through 2023.
It’s a derivative of 187818; which is what one of the Facebook admin guys is using for his beer bet this year (Jerin).

Re: TSP Board is changing the I Fund's index
Thanks all. I've been looking at those Beer Bets strategies on TSP Calc. And i wonder, why is there a trade on one day and an immediate trade the next day? just throwing the question out there... For example 189684 is currently G, goes to S on 10th TD, then come April moves to G on 2nd TD and then S again on 3rd TD. I find that interesting. thanks again
Re: TSP Board is changing the I Fund's index
I don't follow any strategies; just watch the daily news and read stuff. I was thinking about changing over to G today, but I missed the noon deadline (stuck in a MRI tube).
Re: TSP Board is changing the I Fund's index
These one/two-day trades are just to capture "probable" gains within that time period--derived from the strat's past performance --while keeping within the monthly 2 IFT limitations of the TSP.NUC SHARK wrote: ↑Fri Mar 01, 2024 12:22 pm Thanks all.

While these may work to increase the strat's CAGR (opportunity), it usually comes at the expense of the strat's StdDev (risk).
I just did it early this week for my strat, and promptly lost half a percent than if I had just stayed in G. Sometimes stats dont tell nearly the entire story.
Re: TSP Board is changing the I Fund's index
I actually had a strat (104319) I had placed in my watchlist that only hit I fund for 2% of the year, that I may give a try instead (basically that last week of the year like most of the strats), the only thing I DON'T like about it, is that it spends an awful lot of time in F fund over G fund....oh decisions decisions! ugh! lol! Good gains though!Chulke wrote: ↑Fri Mar 01, 2024 8:58 am Sooooo....On Yahoo Finance I found this...https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/%5E753692-USD-STRD
Could this be the index the new I fund will try to emulate?
What I don't like about this new change is it's gonna throw ALL the strats off that use I fund....Is anyone over at TSPCalc starting to calculate that change into the strats?
Cheers!
Cheers!
