  1. TSP Talk - Stocks remain resilient in front of today's inflationary reports

    A stronger than expected GDP and fewer jobless claims, combined with end of quarter window dressing and a positive holiday bias, and the stock market took it and ran and we got another rally. The Nasdaq was flat as the 2nd quarter leader may have seen some selling while the lagging, but still very positive for the quarter, Dow, S&P 500, and small caps had a much better day. The I-fund also lagged because the dollar jumped on the stronger economic data, and bonds were down sharply as yields ...
  2. TSP Talk - End of quarter window dressing, anyone?

    Stocks chopped around quite a bit on Wednesday as money managers jockey for position in what they call window dressing before the end of the quarter.

    The stock market took a much needed rest last week - a week with some historical bearishness, but now comes the end of June and into July where seasonality is no longer an issue. The Dow fell 219-points on Friday and the losses were broad across most indices and sectors. With the dollar rallying on Friday, and regional bank stocks falling sharply, the I-fund and S-funds lagged on the day, and for the week. Yields were down giving the F-fund a solid gain on the day.
