Happy Thanksgiving

Nov 22, 2017 | Market Commentary

Friends 

We always like to take this opportunity during the Thanksgiving holiday to thank all of you for entrusting us with your financial future. As you know we take that responsibility very seriously, and we really do strive to provide the best service in the industry. 

As for today’s markets, for the day, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 64 points to close at 23,526. The S&P 500 was down 1 point to finish the day at 2,597. Gold was up $9 to trade at $1,291 per ounce, while oil was up $1.16 to trade at $57.99 per barrel WTI. 

The office will be close tomorrow and Friday, so we’ll be back with you on Monday. 

Have a Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Enjoy your family and loved ones.
