Stock Market update Apr 5th

The market pulled back early in the week, then recovered to close the week still a little lower. We're now in that indecision zone where we could go either way from here.
The Coronavirus continues to wreak major havoc in New York.
Early market close on Good Friday.

The government continues to throw trillions in money at this problem...
The 30 year Bond was mostly flat, as Oil recovered a bit, as did Gold.
