Stock Market update -Apr 22nd

Looks like we started to roll over again this week, continuing the downtrend that started from the peak in Jan, with AAPL leading the decline on Friday. Bonds dropped as well! Oil was up. We get earnings from big Tech this week, followed by AAPL the following week -this will probably drive market direction in the short term. The Energy sector continued to rally this week (XLE, XOP, etc) as we await earnings from CVX & XOM on Friday.
