Good Evening, I am on the road this week so I’ll keep this brief. The market traded flat today as it waits for decisions from the Bank of Japan and Fed within the next 24 hours. Our TSP allotment edged up +0.04%. For comparison, the Dow added +0.05%, the Nasdaq +0.12%, and the S&P 500 +0.03%.
Wall Street ends flat with Fed, BOJ up next
The days action left us with the following signals: C-Neutral, S-Neutral, I-Neutral, F-Neutral. We are currently invested at 100/F. Our allocation is now +1.29% on the year. Here are the latest posted results:

It’s all about the Fed and BOJ. There’s no use in speculating at this point. Lets just see what they do and play the action before us when the dust settles. As I mentioned earlier, I am on the road this week so I’ll try to blog if I get a chance. If not, then I’ll see you next week. Remember, our plan is to ride this poor season out in the F Fund and look for a new entry point into equities as we move into October if the market provides us with that opportunity. Have a nice evening and may God continue to bless your trades.
