For those that heeded our TSP reevaluation article on Nov. 2, 2016, 'Should i move my investments prior to the election?', and did not allow their irrational hatred for Trump prevent them from reevaluating their TSP investments, have come out as big winners. Prior to the election, the DOW was down 27.4% for the year under the Obama Administration. With the Trump Bump, 'C' and 'S' Fund investors have kicked butt with the DOW breaking 20,000 in the fastest increase by 1,000 on record. 'L' Fund investors, while taking a more diversified approach, have done well too.
