The Markets ... January 19, 2017

edited January 2017 in The OT Bullpen
Good morning,

For those that might have an interest ...

Yesterday the major indexes closed slightly up with the S&P 500 Index closing at 2271.89 (0.18%) while it's three best performing sectors were financials, materials, and industrials. In checking the markets this morning, as I write, Europe is down, Asia-Pacific is mixed while the state side futures indicate a down open for both stocks and government bonds.

In checking the Lipper Indexes growth leads in the styles classification while high yield leads in bonds.
