Most likely the valve stem. On my old bike, my valve stem thingy came lose. Just get the tool and tighten it up. If it still leaks after that, have someone look at it.

Just tighten it up. If you don't have the valve stem tool, you can do it with a very fine pair of pliers. I got an air compressor and I don't mind using it so 1 PSI a day doesn't bother me... but you should get it checked out anyways.

You shouldn't be losing psi that fast like everyone has said.
And because you seem to keep misspelling it, it's TREAD, not THREAD.

Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.
