TSP Market Summary: Week of December 21, 2014

By Roy Weisert, PhD, CFP

Key Takeaways

  • Markets recovered from previous week's losses on positive Fed Chair commentary
  • Falling gas prices increased consumer spending, benefiting stock-heavy TSP funds (C/S)
  • Economic improvements suggest continued support for equity fund performance

What a change this week as the markets bounced back from last week's losses. The majority of the gains seemed to be related to the Fed Chairwoman's comments. The other nice touch has been the drop in gas prices, which has contributed to more consumer spending, helping out the economy.
