Apollo is saying the credit market is the main landing spot for the money-market rotation, not equities. Money flowing into the credit market would lower interest rates across its market. Margin available to investors is credit. Lower-interest rates for owed margin would lower the risk of using it to invest. New money would then fuel the market higher.

Is there an F-fund play in there somewhere?

That would make sense, yet the bond performance through the two rate cuts this year has been a decline in price. If the bond market is on the verge of soaking in cash from money markets, it has opened up a buying opportunity for those who were priced out before the first rate cut.

I haven't seen any headlines that might cause it. Maybe it's just filling the open gap, in which case the midday dip would be about done.

The Russell 2000 is still up 1.7%. 😮
 
Russell 2000 near a five year high!? Time to bail? Tom Lee et al say stay the course.
Been in RUT since June but I just don't know...... :unsure:

Does TSP automatically calculate and distribute RMD's? (Required Minimum Distributions)
Or does a TSP account holder have to do RMD's strictly manually by themselves?
I keep getting 'non-answer' answers from TSP. :unsure:
Thx.
 
Simply FYI only:

TSP I Fund—International Stocks​

  • Tracking Index: MSCI ACWI IMI ex China, HK, USA Index
  • Funds with similar holdings: None that have the same China and Hong Kong market exclusions. Fidelity Total International Index FTIHX and iShares Core MSCI Total International Stock IXUS are the closest but include China and Hong Kong markets.

Just 'feels' like they're gonna do a .25% rate cut but nothing's a lock of course.
Odds about 2/3.
It just seems that NOT doing a rate cut would upset/rattle the market.
Also, I hope Jerome doesn't say anything that would spook the market and ruin the gift I'm
hoping to get from Santa this December! :giggle:

Was looking at UUP and the last 2 years(2022 and 2023) it tanked near the end of the year
(don't know what that was about)
and is currently near a relative high.
Maybe an I-fund play? Just speculating. :unsure:
 
Okay, first of all stop messing with my Russell 2000! :mad:
Gonna assume early Dec 'softness' (for me anyway) is waiting for the jobs report and
for Jerome's speech from on high next week.
Congrats to all in the black/green!
As for you Santa, get with it or no milk and cookies for you buddy! :cautious:
