Market Look

We forgot to mention DEFENSE stocks gapping up on the news that President Trump cut deals with countries in the Middle East to buy a bunch of stuff. This gap will take a few names out of trading ranges.

Futures are up a wee bit this morning. We wanted to add some thoughts to our weekend report. The Euro is now moving higher as it looks like a big bottom has been put in place. If this continues, expect the recent better action in oils and a little bit better in commodities to continue….

With a few exceptions, the bad got badder and the good pulled in hard. .A decent bounce then started up but the bounce also did not change much.
