As a TSP Participant myself, this is a great educational read. It is difficult not falling prey to emotional investing, especially with the current market conditions. If you have a long term plan in place with a diversified portfolio ensure that it is in line with your PRESENT risk tolerance. This is where working with a trusted financial advisor will be beneficial to your personal situation.

A couple thoughts:
- If you systematically continue investing in a particular fund, you will get more shares for your investment if your investment amount per each month is constant.
-If you don't sell, you don't lose. Wait for the market to go back up.
-Those who are retiring in a couple years should move their investments to least risky funds. In 2008 many investors saw their mutual fund nest eggs slashed quite a bit as the stock market soured. Some decided to work more years due to their shrunken nest egg.
- Who understands a Life Cycle fund?
