Top Day Market News
University of Michigan consumer confidence at 9:55 and then the release of Leading Economic Indicators at 10 round out the week. The week has had a consistent theme: a stronger dollar and a move out of metals. Dollar strength is coming from the perception that the Fed will taper its asset sales as early as this summer. The only market bucking the dollar strength is oil which may pull of an intermediate trend reversal today.
