Good Evening,

News from the Ukraine made it rough on us today. Gold saved me on the street, but since TSP doesn’t have alternative investments available, the only way to avoid the dip was to be defensive and that would not be good when the inevitable bounce comes….. All we can do with TSP is ride it out or get out….. For now I’ll consider this dip nothing more than healthy consolidation. We’ll see…

 

Stocks finish lower on Ukraine fears

The F Fund was the clear winner today and the I Fund was the hardest hit.
F Fund:
0303
I Fund:
03031
The I Fund still shows a solid buy signal and I expect it will bounce well in the coming days so I’m not ready to jump ship just yet. Neither am I ready to go defensive, I am still bullish on March. We’ll just see how Mr. Putin and the KGB effect the flow of things. Smells kind of like a good buying opportunity to me. That’s all for tonight. I don’t sweat a day like today. I know that if I seek God with all my heart, He will continue to bless me as He always has.
Have a nice evening!

    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…
