Stocks are holding gains into the TSP trade deadline and some TSP Talk investors don't want to be holding stocks into Monday.

The S-fund is bound for a decent single day gain. The DWCPF is up 1.56% this morning adding to its 2.31% weekly gain it started the day with.

The Federal Open Markets Commitee is set to cut rates this coming Wednesday, but there is still plenty of uncertainty of whether that will be a 0.25% or 0.50% rate cut. Last night the market projections of the later rose to from a 28% chance to a 43% chance. This adds uncertainty yet the market may prefer the deeper cut.

All of the TSP funds are on tracks for gains today.

tsptalk's Market Talk - Was it the PPI yesterday, the jobless claims, or something else, but there is now a 47% change of a 0.50% rate cut next week.

DreamboatAnnie's Account Talk - Looks like all stock funds are a buy. I missed entry but will move in a bit ... likely to every fund. I like to enter when at least two indicators go positive/crossover (green circles on RSI, Stochastic, MACD).

JTH's Account Talk - Here’s a 52-Week High review of our progress from Thursday’s close to the 7-session low, then going back to the 5-Aug -9.71% correction. At present 43% of the Top-40 are within -5% striking distance to their 52-Week High, they have an index weighting of 11.46%.
