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 Morning, Well this months almost over and so far the major indices are still holding modest gains in the +1.5% range. If we can manage to hold onto or add to those gains we will have achieved what a lot of folks said we could not do. We will have made a profit when…

    Good Morning, Well we got the Fed meeting that we wanted with a quarter point interest rate decrease with the indication that the Fed is planning on two more rate cuts in 2025. As a result, we find ourselves in the odd position of holding a profit in late September. I said in last weeks…
