Stock market bulls ran amok on Friday following a better than expected jobs report. The rally pushed the S&P 500 (NYSEARCA:SPY) within spitting distance of all-time highs.
One thing is for sure: It’s been a crazy year.
Next week will be important to see if market bulls can close the deal with some upside follow through. It looks promising but every advance over 21oo in the past 18 months has been stifled.
One factor that may weigh on the market’s ability (or inability) to push higher in July is earnings. Active investors will be watching the numbers and reaction to the numbers for clues.
Enjoy this week’s edition of Top Trading Links. We have some excellent insights into earnings season, market events, and more.
