Good Evening, The market decided to take a rest today. I’m not too concerned as a little profit taking after the nice run in October is healthy. We will see how things go from here but my guess is that the market is consolidating before the next move up. All the boxes are being checked one by one for a rally into the new year and the infrastructure package that was passed by congress this past weekend was another step in the right direction. With earnings pretty much out of the way the market will now focus on the continued reopening of the economy with a close eye on inflation. As we have mentioned many times lately the attention on inflation will be in relation to how if might influence the Fed policy on interest rates. Interest rates are ultimately where all paths lead. I have reviewed our TSP Charts carefully and decided to move to the S Fund to take advantage of the seasonal bias for small cap stocks. While the S Fund is not made up entirely of small cap stocks it does have a great deal of them and is the best way that we have available in TSP to invest in them. With that in mind I will be putting in a interfund transfer to 100/S that will be effective at the close of business tomorrow. Keep praying that God will continue to bless our hand!

The days trading left us with the following results: Our TSP allotment fell -0.35%. For comparison, the Dow dropped -0.31%, the Nasdaq-0.60%, and the S&P 500 -0.35%.

S&P 500 dips from record, snaps 8-day win streak ahead of key inflation data

The days action left us with the following signals: C-Buy, S-Buy, I-Buy, F-Hold. We are currently invested at 100/C but will be putting in an interfund transfer for 100/S effective at the close of business tomorrow. Our TSP allotment is currently +21.36% on the year not including the days results. Here are the latest posted results:

    Good Evening, Wow, where do I start tonight? First let me talk briefly about last Thursday’s interfund transfer. We issued the transfer alert at 11:00 AM  that day and there were several folks that didn’t see it in time to make the trade before the TSP deadline of 12:00PM. Given the next days drop their…
