Stock Market update -Apr 26



The market was mostly flat this week as we consolidate in this area, after the recent rally from the bottom. The jury is still out as to whether we continue higher from this resistance level here, or reverse. This week could tell as we have many potential market moving events -earnings from big tech, a Fed meeting, and the monthly Jobs report on Friday!  Meanwhile, most businesses remain closed throughout the country!

Bonds were flat, Gold was up, and Oil Futures dropped to NEGATIVE $35!
