Good Evening, Well inauguration day finally arrived! Now the trading will shift from hope to reality. Like Him or hate him a lot of investors believe that Trumps policies will be market friendly. However, most of them are being cautious as they would with any change. The market doesn’t always do what they think so they are careful with any change. It is much easier to be a reactive trader as we are and not worry about such things. No use in worrying about the things we are powerless to change. Just read the charts and do what they say…… and pray…..
The days action left us with the following results: Our TSP allotment gained +0.42%. For comparison the Dow added +0.48%, the Nasdaq +0.28% and the S&P 500 +0.34%. They say it was the first time in 50 years that an incoming president was met with a rising market. Interesting, but I’m not sure if it has any bearing on the future.
Wall Street ends higher as Trump becomes president.
The days action left us with the following signals: C-Neutral, S-Neutral, I Buy, F-Neutral. We are currently invested at 100/S. Our allotment is now +0.94% for the year not including the days gains. Here are the latest posted results:
