Upside’s Commentary
Following the S&P 500’s largest weekly gain since January 2013, the market was mixed today, as energy shares declined along with the price of oil. The Dow was up 13, or 0.1%, to 16,818. The Nasdaq was up 2, or 0.1%, to 4,486, while the S&P 500 fell three points, or 0.2%, closing at 1,962. $80 seems to be the level that foks are watching. As we broke that level the market sold off, as crude recovered above that number, so did the market.
Economic news due out tomorrow includes September’s Durable Goods Report, which economists expect to show a 0.2% increase, as well as Consumer Confidence, which analysts see coming in at 87.3 versus last month’s 86.0 reading.
The Technicals
