  1. TSP Talk: Another test of shallow support

    Someone pulled the plug on the market yesterday after a week of a series of strange events. We mentioned Gamestop, as has every other market pundit in the world, but that type of action is starting to spread and the overall market doesn't seem to know what to make of it. The Dow lost 634-points and 2% to 3% losses were seen across the board.

  5. TSP Talk: Another one hour pullback hits the market

    Stocks were wild, and mixed again on Monday. The Dow (-37-points) and the small caps were down, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq were up.
