About the New TSP Ticker

Today, GovExec.com debuts the revamped TSP Ticker on our home page. We have updated the Ticker in an effort to provide the most useful information to Thrift Savings Plan investors and to reflect the creation of the new L Funds, the TSP's automatically rebalanced life-cycle investment vehicles.

Previously, the TSP Ticker tracked the performance of the TSP's stock funds - the C, S and I funds--using daily published figures for the three indexes that the funds track. Now we will track the individual share prices for each of the funds (including the G, F and L Funds), which are updated by the TSP Board each evening. In addition, we will show the daily change in each fund's share price and provide a running tally of the percentage change for the current month.

We also will continue to provide monthly returns for the TSP funds.

For more information about the TSP, visit the TSP Web site, especially its frequently asked questions section.

  • I put everything into G because all funds are hitting rock bottom in 2008! It has already started.
  • I invest on G, C, S and I funds. I love the information you have been providing regarding the TSP. Everyday, I check whether my investments went up or down. Any addt'l. info. will be well received. Thank you very much guys for an excellent job. You make my life much, much easier in determining where to invest and what percentage I should invest in each fund. More power to you!
