Economic Journal - Monday, 7/2/2012

(As of 6:45 am pacific)

The market is rising again this morning into the new quarter, the afterglow of Friday’s spectacular gain.  It’s a different feel this morning however as gold and oil have left the party, falling moderately.  Interest rates are stable and the dollar is mixed.  I would say that if the market can continue this rally through the day, it would be a very bullish sign for the future.  I think we may see a pullback as the day wears on due to weak domestic economic news.  A key manufacturing index the PMI came in at an 18 month low, but still expanding slightly.
