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

  1. A pause before a busy week

    Stocks took a breather on Thursday with most of the broader averages flat to modestly lower on the day, although the rotation out of tech saw the Nasdaq 100 Index down more sharply (-0.79%) and the Dow up nearly 100-points, so it wasn't outright selling. It's been a clear move from growth to value stocks this week.

  2. A breakout of sorts

    It was big day for stocks with the Dow leading the way gaining 1.4% on the day while the broader indices gained about half of that, but that is still a solid day for stocks. The Financials played a little catch up as bond yields rallied, and that helped the large banks push the Dow higher.

  3. The leaders lead, the large caps stall

    Stocks were flat to modestly higher yesterday, depending on the index. The Nasdaq and small caps continue to lead on the upside and both made new highs yesterday. The Dow (down 14-points) and the S&P 500 (up 2) were basically flat on the day and the charts that we've been posting kind of told us why that might be the case (open gap filled, etc.) The Transports were down, as were the financials, while oil was up slightly.

  4. A Monday morning gap... that held

    Stocks rallied to start the new week as the Dow added another 178-points, or 0.72%, on the day. The action was impressive given that it was a follow-through to Friday's jobs report rally, but also it was a Monday morning gap up that held. We did see some new highs in the Nasdaq and small caps, but the S&P and financials are still below some resistance, so can they catch up?

  5. Job report triggers rally. Can it hold?

    Stocks capitalized on a strong jobs report and rallied strongly on Friday, forgetting all about the trade concerns that took them down the day before. The Dow gained 219-points so the large back and forth gains and losses continued on as investors try to piece together the clues they have been given from each catalyst. Bonds were down but they seem to just be digesting those large gains picked up over the last couple of weeks.
