Good Evening. It was another wild day for the market with big swings in both directions. Investors were trading off of tariff news today. The Dow and S&P were both down big until the afternoon session when they rebounded on news that President Trump might exempt some countries from the tariff of steel and aluminum. Both indices finished the day in the red but way off their lows. Small caps did well today as they derive their income domestically and would not be hurt by a trade war. That is the reason that the S Fund made a decent gain of +0.59%.
The days trading left us with the following signals: Our TSP allotment slipped slightly at -0.05%. For comparison, the Dow fell -0.33%, the Nasdaq gained +0.33%, and the S&P was off slightly at -0.05%.

The days action left us with the following signals: C-Buy, S-Buy, I-Sell, F-Neutral. We are currently invested at 100/C. Our allocation is now +1.37% on the year not including today’s results. Here are the latest posted results:
