TSP Market Summary: Week of January 26, 2015

By Roy Weisert, PhD, CFP

Key Takeaways

  • US markets posted another week of positive performance across major indices
  • International QE launch could benefit I Fund but allocations staying current for now
  • Strategy remains defensive with readiness to adjust as global monetary policy unfolds

This week was a good one for the US markets again. However, what happened in the International markets was significant. Their "Fed Chairperson" initiated a similar program to the Quantitative Easing that was used here in the last few years. Hopefully we'll see a similar turnaround, but for right now we'll maintain our current allocations, but standby ready for update notifications.
