Stock Market Update -July 3rd

We got a huge rally this week, with big gains every day wiping out most of the prior losses for the month. This was the best one week rally in 2 years. 'Short covering' probably added fuel to push the rally higher, along with some temporary relief from the situation in Greece.

We'll have to see if it turns into a sustained up-trend. Of course, as stocks rallied, the US Dollar was down, and the Euro rallied; Bonds were also down as stocks rose.

New all time highs: ACN, AMZN, AVGO, BBBY, BIIB, CMG, COH, DRI, DTV, IBM, MCD, SBUX, SODA, TIF, XRT, UTX, YUM


New unemployment claims were mostly unchanged at 428,000 (chart).
This week, no banks were shut down by the FDIC! (list).

Next week: (Economic reports link). 4 day trading week. Happy 4th of July!
We get the much anticipated monthly Jobs report on Friday morning.

Market commentary: The market rallied nicely off support this week. We're seeing stocks hitting new all time highs again (see above). This rally could continue further if we get good earnings reports a week from now!

This weeks charts:
SPY -S&P 500 -approaching the May top
XLK -Technology -nice rally off the bottom- like most stocks
TLT -Gov bonds -dropped! inverse relationship to stocks -was that the top!

Commodities (charts):
Oil prices were up a bit, closing around $95.00 per barrel.
Natural Gas was mostly unchanged closing near $4.30.
Gold tumbled, in spite of the dollar dropping, closing near $1480.
The 30 year Bond tumbled as stocks rose, closing near $122.68.
The US Dollar was up again, closing near 75.45.

First of all I would like to say fantastic blog! I had a quick
question which I'd like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts prior to writing. I have had difficulty clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually wasted just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips? Thank you!
