Last week was an interesting week. On Monday and Tuesday, stocks dropped and SPX tested 1870, not quite as low as the August low. So things got a bit tricky, as the bulls and bears fought it out. But, by Tuesday's close, buyers were already getting in. Wednesday was a nice pop. Thursday continued upwards with a quick mid-day pullback. Friday morning, markets gapped lower on disappointing jobs report. But, the weakness lasted only thirty minutes. Buyers couldn't wait to get back in, it seemed. In the early afternoon, markets had turned positive, and rallied until the close!
