BLUFStocks bounce back from AI sell-off, but bond yields jump on hot jobs data
· Sent · By Reveille Brief Team
Markets steadied Friday after Thursday's steep AI-driven sell-off wiped out about $3 trillion in stock value. Chipmakers led a rebound in U.S. stocks even as a much stronger-than-expected jobs report pushed bond yields higher on rising bets for a December Fed rate hike. Overseas markets lagged, with European shares still falling as they caught up to Thursday's tech-driven rout.

TSP 101
The G Fund's principal and interest payments are guaranteed by the U.S. government, which is part of why it behaves so differently from the other TSP funds. Because it isn't traded on the open market, it doesn't experience the daily price swings that stock and bond funds can see.
