By Roy Weisert, PhD, CFP •

Key Takeaways

  • On July 29, the C, S and I funds each lost more than 1%, and prices slipped below key moving averages.
  • The commentary recommends a third monthly investment mix that raises cash because its stated trigger was met.
  • The S&P 500 remains in a 12-week range between 7,237 and 7,620, and a break below the low is a risk.

In last weekends update we stated that From a technical perspective we still remain in that 12-week S&P 500 range bound market between a high of 7,620 on 2 June and low of 7,237 on 9 June. But we are starting to see some weakness in our short-term indicators, as prices have decreased below their 20 and 50 day Moving Averages (MA). ........if (TSP) conditions worsen, WE WILL UTILIZE A THIRD MONTHLY INVESTMENT MIX AT THE END OF THE WEEK, FURTHER INCREASING THE CASH ALLOCATION. Well, they did worsen today, Wednesday 29 July, with all three equity funds (C/S/I) having greater than 1% daily losses. As such we recommend the further increase in our cash allocation as follows.
