The bulls reestablished their January dominance this week. The indices were up early in the week but pulled back early Wednesday, from there the buyers brought stocks to gains over 2% for the C-fund and 3% for the S-fund. The I-fund lagged the TSP stock funds but still managed a gain just short of 1%.

I'm about to jump on a plane so I have to keep this short this week. However I put the charts together for you to see below. The common theme among the stocks funds is a trend toward higher prices but with some resistance that could threaten the performance we've seen in January moving forward. But there has also been some wins for the bulls on these charts. All the stock charts below have established prices above their 200-day EMAs. This could be a foundation that will attract new buyers if prices do pull back.
