Good Evening,
Plummeting oil prices drove down the energy sector which, in turn, pressured the major indices into a flat-to-negative day. On the positive side, it was only a half-day of trading and the major indices did end up positive for the sixth straight week, albeit not by much. Both TSP and AMP were off on the day.

Wall St. up for sixth straight week despite oil rout

It was a short trading day so I think I’ll call it a day and go watch some football. We ended the week with some weakness but it was a shortened trading week on low volume. I’m not really sure how much (if anything) we can read from that. Our task remains the same: monitor our charts closely and stick with this trend as long as it lasts. Have a great weekend and enjoy that left over turkey. I don’t know about you, but I like it even better the second time around!
God bless,

    Good Afternoon, This was a Fed Driven market. It was all about when the Fed would be reducing interest rates based on inflation and that’s still the case to a certain degree, but in all actuality everything is waiting on the outcome of the tariff situation. So given that fact I’m going to say that…

    Good Afternoon, The sky is falling right??? Well…..that all depends on your point of view. One thing we can all agree on though. This is a difficult market. It is not a pleasant market to trade. I’ve had more than a few comments and questions mostly off the record. It’s going down we’re losing money….…
