Data point: I just looked at the May 31 MBCBP statement. In simple interest, mine is up 7.5% for the first 8 months. If the trend continues, that’s 11.25% for a year.

Take your account value and divide it by the total base allocation.
The % on the statement has an asterisk: *interest rate varies during the year.

My current balance minus my ending balance 2023 divided by my 2023 ending balance is <2% return. 2.23% was the last allocation return.

I think you are looking at a lifetime gain of 7.5%. Mine is up 6.87% since inception. Our differences in lifetime returns are likely due to timing of contributions. 67% of my total contributions were on the 11/30 statement.

Thats exactly what I’m looking at. The account isn’t even a year old yet; I’m looking at the simple return over 8 months. I agree with your timing assessment.

That's not bad over 8 months then especially for a majority bond fund. What are people complaining about? (I opted out so my only info about returns comes from here)

Is there any talk of allowing pilots who were hired after the opt out cutoff date, to “opt out” ?
