Good Evening, News Friday that the FBI was reopening the investigation of Hillary Clintons Emails sent stocks tumbling for the day. However, the market resumed treading water (I think until the election) today. Although, trading did have a slightly negative bias as oil closed lower on the day. You can read all about it in the link below.

The days trading left us with the following results: Our TSP allotment gained +0.46%. For comparison, The Dow slipped -0.10%, the Nasdaq -0.02%, and the S&P -0.01%.
