Friends
As we have seen time and time again lately, stocks just can’t stay down for long. After a few days of lackluster interest, the bulls seemed to have rediscovered their appetite for stocks. Nothing has really changed with regards to the investing environment in the past few weeks, but every time stocks falter buyers appear to move the market averages back towards new all-time highs.
As for today, by the close the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 477 points to finish the day at 39,760. The S&P 500 was up 44 points to close at 5,248. The Nasdaq Composite Index was up 83 points to close at 16,399. Gold was up $13 to trade at $2,212 per ounce, while oil was up $.09 to trade at $81.71 per barrel WTI.
Remember the markets are closed for Good Friday, so tomorrow is the last trading day of the quarter. We’ll let you know how the week, month and quarter all finish up tomorrow.
Have a nice evening everyone.
Jim
