In case you missed it, here’s a summary of the ETF topics and market reviews I posted to my blog during the week ending on 4/15/2012.
Disappointment from the jobs report did indeed affect last Monday’s trading, as the spillover effect kicked in and took the starch out of any remaining upward momentum.
Despite the 2-day rally on Wednesday and Thursday, negative sentiment, along with Europe’s debt crisis moving back onto the front burner, were simply too much for the bulls to overcome. Friday’s close of the major indexes at the low levels for the day may not bode well for Monday’s opening.
This week, we covered the following:
