BLUFStocks Rally to End Volatile Week as Yields Keep Climbing
· Sent · By Reveille Brief Team
U.S. stocks bounced back Friday to cap a choppy week, with the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq all posting gains. Underneath the rally, Treasury yields kept climbing on inflation worries tied to high energy prices, and a strong U.S. dollar created a headwind for overseas holdings even as European markets had a strong day.

TSP 101
The G Fund's principal and interest payments are guaranteed by the U.S. Government, which is part of why it's considered the most stable TSP fund. Unlike the F, C, S, and I Funds, it isn't traded on the open market, so it doesn't experience the daily price ups and downs that stock and bond funds do.
