  4. Food for thought on the TSP small cap fund.... https://www.consumerreports.org/cro/money/personal-investing/post-recession-investing/overview/index.htm "Another observation: After each recession, small-company stocks were the clear winner, something we've pointed out here in the past. Part of the explanation lies in the fact that small-cap stocks are usually sold off faster when the economy heads south. And during the latest recession small-caps lost a stomach-churning 60 percent, much more than the 37 percent that small-caps gave back in previous recessions. But as the economy improves, small-caps tend to snap back more quickly as well. In short, there's higher risk in small-cap stocks, but there's also a higher reward."

I didn't fight back and signed b/c big picture it didn't matter with a 10 year ADSC further out than the IP school ADSC. Pick your battles wisely...YMMV depending upon ops' culture in the moment
