I wish I understood why the market is going back up this afternoon. Right now, S&P 500 shows up 1.33%. Maybe now the market "crashed", people are buying up stocks again at lower prices? Anyway, a sign of relief I hope.
Good luck with your TSP and retirement plans!

Fundamentals are sound and VIX took a 19% dump. People lost their behinds on XIV and Bond yields went back down.

Bulls took a nap, ready to run again

A guest on Bloomberg radio suggested it is due to algorithmic trading, not people. Apparently all the robots (algo-bots?), decided it was now time to buy the dip.

The fear/greed complexes go into hyper-gear when things like this happen. A daily indicator I look for is a day when the market is up early, then remains flat across the chart.
