This and that about the market, the TSP, maybe some politics, and life.

  1. Typical low volume tepid pre-holiday move higher

    Stocks rallied modestly on Monday with the Dow gaining 72-points with smaller gains for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq. Small caps led on the upside again while the I-fund ran into some strength in the dollar to hold it back a bit.

    Stocks were mostly lower on Friday with the Dow falling 100-points and most indices fading into the close posting small to moderate losses.

  3. What pullback? Earnings and Tax Plan lift stocks

    Stocks rebounded on Thursday erasing the losses of the prior two days. The Dow jumped 187-points on the day, or +0.8%, as the dip buyers mocked the bears after their first 0.5% decline in two months on Wednesday.

  4. First 0.5% loss in over 2 months

    Stocks opened sharply lower again on Wednesday and while the dip buyers showed up early, they faded a bit in late afternoon trading and the indices closed with modest losses. The Dow gave up 138-points and most of the major indices lost in the neighborhood of 0.5%, which is of some significance since it has been more than 2-months since the S&P 500 lost 0.5% in one day.

  5. More early selling gets bought

    An early sell-off was bought yet again on Tuesday as the buy the dip strategy continues to work for those playing it. The Dow, which was off nearly 160-points near the open, closed down just 30-points, with modest one quarter percent losses in most of the major indices. The I-fund held up as the dollar slid 0.7% on the day.
