Top Day Market News
Weekly jobless claims were down a substantial 42,000 to 346,000. Continuing claims of around 3.08 million. Import prices were lower. There is a 30 year bond auction later today which will focus interest on this key interest rate.
In my best Bostonian English, the market enjoyed a wicked rally yesterday. It smacked of upside capitulation especially for those who established short positions after the abysmal unemployment number on Friday. The market should at least put in some time at current levels and stall out.
