Good Evening, I know it’s Friday so I’ll keep this brief. The market rose again today on positive sentiment regarding the ongoing trade negotiations. Several comments from both China and the United Sates indicate that significant progress is being made. I’m sticking to my prediction of a new trade agreement in early April. Both sides need an agreement and that’s the reason it will happen!

The days trading left us with the following results: Our TSP allotment posted another nice gain of +0.67%. Praise God for that! For comparison, the Dow added +0.82%, the Nasdaq +0.78%, and the S&P 500 +0.67%.

 

Trade hopes lift Wall Street; S&P 500 notches best quarter since 2009

The weeks action left us with the following signals: C-Neutral, S-Neutral, I-Neutral, F-Buy. Our allocation is now +7.25% on the year not including the days results. Here are the latest posted results:

    Good Day, It’s time to adjust our mix. The new mix is 100/S. Please remember that this is the percentage of money that we have invested in each fund, not the money that is taken from your check and deposited into thrift. Those future contributions should always be 100% G Fund. That automatically protects your…

    Good Morning, We got a great PCE report on Friday showing relatively tame inflation.  The Commerce Department said that the core personal consumption expenditures price index for September – which was delayed due to the record-setting U.S. government shutdown – showed an annual rate of 2.8%, lower than the 2.9% Dow Jones estimate. Core PCE’s 0.2%…

    Good Morning, Well we’ve finally arrived at the last month of 2025 and I’m glad to get here. Statistically speaking December is the third beast month for the market with average return of greater than 1 percent.
