Stock Market update -Nov 19th

The market seems to be in limbo, having dropped earlier in the week, then recovering on Thursday. Next week we have a short one because of Thanksgiving. Markets seem to want to take a pause after this recent run. Bonds seem to be holding to the up side, and will probably continue higher if stocks take a dip.
