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

  1. TSP Talk: Good riddance to 2020

    As this crazy year winds down, we got a quiet day of trading on Wednesday, as we'd expect this time of year. The seasonal bias and internal numbers were bullish, and volume was light as we'd expect, but there was a fade off the highs so the bears were still hanging around. The Dow gained 74-points and the small caps broke their 3 day losing stream with a strong day. One more trading day to go in 2020, and it should be quiet, but if any big money makes a move, it could push the indices around. ...
  2. TSP Talk: Stocks stalling on light volume

    Stocks were down yesterday with small caps taking the brunt of the selling again, although volume was light and it's tough to conclude too much from the action. The Dow ended the day with a modest loss of 68-points, with a similar percentage loss for the S&P 500. The Nasdaq took a stiffer hit and small caps saw a second 1% plus loss in as many days. Bonds were up slightly.

  3. TSP Talk: Stocks remain mostly bullish, but mixed

    The stock indices were mostly higher on Monday with some performing much better than others as we saw some rebalancing going on from money managers, and the light trading may have made it more pronounced. The Dow gained over 200-points, the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and even the I-fund were all up nicely, but small caps were down sharply, and the Transports were flat.

  4. TSP Talk: Stimulus deal reached

    I hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend. Now back to the grind. Stocks rallied on Christmas Eve, as we'd expect on a quiet, light volume half day of trading before a holiday, although there were some pockets of weakness as we've seen investors move money from one sector to another recently, rather than all out buying across the board. The Dow gained 70-points and the S&P and Nasdaq posted moderate gains, but it was the small caps day to lag as the S-fund dipped 0.19%.

  5. TSP Talk: Holiday rallies abound!

    Stocks were sailing along for most of the day on Wednesday, but a very late headline reversed things, at least in some of the indices. The Dow gained 114-points, well below the +277 it had earlier in the day, and most of the downdraft happened in the final 10 minutes of trading, after President Trump vetoed the defense spending bill. That wasn't the stimulus deal sp perhaps investors overreacted?
