Stock Market update Jul 19

It was kind of a flat week for the SPX with a drop on Monday followed by a recovery. The Nasdaq 100 however didn't recover from that drop, while the Small Caps (IWM) recovered and then went even higher -crazy divergence in these markets. The SPX is now back up to the prior top we saw around Jun 8th-we'll see if it can take out that high.  NFLX dropped after reporting earnings. And Covid cases continue to increase. 

This week we get more earnings which will probably guide market direction. Last week we got the big banks, all with good reports except for Wells Fargo.
