Good Evening, As you already know by now the website went down last night so I was unable to post a blog even though I had the time and desired to do so ):. At least we’re good to go now!. The market continued higher on positive sentiment over a potential trade deal with China. Several comments were made today about progress being made in the negotiations and that the negotiations will continue in Washington next week. It is widely hoped that an agreement will be reached before the March deadline for additional tariffs to be put on Chinese goods. The fact that so many investors pushed the market higher late in the session and are willing to hold stocks over the weekend tells me that they are betting heavily on a trade deal with China. Of course, I don’t have to tell you what negative news on the subject would do…..

The days trading left us with the following results: Our TSP allotment posted a strong gain of +1.24% as small and mid cap industrials continued to outperform. For comparison, the Dow added +1.74%, the Nasdaq +0.61%, and the S&P 500 +1.09%. Praise God for a great day!

 

Wall Street rallies on trade optimism

The weeks action left us with the following signals: C-Buy, S-Buy, I-Neutral, F-Neutral. We are currently invested at 100/S. Our allocation is now +5.06% for the year not including the days results. Here are the latest posted results.

    Good Morning, I woke up this morning and looked  at the notifications on my phone and I was like what? A criminal investigation of Jerome Powell? What kind of fake Facebook post is that?? Then I saw a thing or two from a couple of the major networks and I immediately realized that this might…

    Good Day, Well this is the last blog of 2025. Was it a better year? Well the returns were better but you had to work harder to get them as well. Overall, it was a volatile year with the Fed interest rate/ Inflation issue, tariffs,  the AI trade and the government shut down dominating the…
