Quick Recap of the Week
Stocks fell last week, mostly due to a loss on Friday. It was prompted by a strong Nonfarm Payrolls (employment) report. Normally, an increase in jobs causes stocks to rally. However, investors feared it may prompt the Fed to raise interest rates in June. Bonds fell for the same reason.
For the TSP, the I Fund had the largest loss of 1.85%. It was followed by the C Fund’s 1.53% drop. The S and F Funds had similar losses of 1.05% and 1.01%, respectively.
