  1. Bonds' turn


    Stocks were slightly lower on Thursday and the Dow shed 14-points. The losses were mostly muted but once again the market opened higher, but failed to hold onto those early gains. Small caps lost some early moderate gains but held on to close slightly positive.

  3. Consumer Confidence is highest since 2001


    It was more typical light volume, positive biased, holiday action yesterday, although stocks peaked early in the day and drifted lower throughout the afternoon to close well off the highs. Still the Dow held onto an 11-point gain while small caps and the Nasdaq led the way again with solid gains.

    Stocks were flat for most of the day on Friday, but some late buying pushed most indices into positive territory and the day ended with slight to modest gains. The Dow gained 15-points while the Nasdaq and small caps led the way.

  5. Slippage
