Back on the Saddle

 

We are very grateful to be back, and we look forward to continuing the sharing our investing strategies ideas we started last year. A lot had taken place, changes galore on many aspects of life; on economics, the government, social and culturally, we have a new working progress continuum, yet not completely back to a normal situation, mostly a revolving change carousel. Relationships had changed, at work, with family, and in general, on every aspect of life as we knew before the Covid 19 Pandemic, the Presidential Election, and the lockdowns. 

We must have the flexibility to adapt to the environment we have to function and try to keep a positive outlook for the long term. God willing we will bounce back and do the best we can to continue our lives the best we can with the hand we were dealt. 

The stock market has recovered from the March 2020 correction. We did well considering all that took place last year. We were able to gain a 30% profit for the year. And we hope that our current strategy will enable us to stay the course and keep the current positive trend. Our current allocation for the TSP is 50% C and 50% S. So far we are still beating the market 6% vs. 3.48% on the S&P 500 as of this writing.  

Stay healthy, be safe, take care, keep calm and carry on.
