The Battle Continues Between the Bulls and the Bears

The battle between the Bulls and Bears continues in the equity markets. This past week the Bulls won with a very positive 5.35% return.

Out of the 6 markets that we track, only two closed with a positive gain for the week and they were the S&P 500 index and crude oil. We consider both of these moves counter trend rally’s. Both the silver and gold markets lost ground last week, with silver closing down 1.89% and gold dropping 2.36%.

The Dollar Index saw some profit taking and closed down .85% for the week.
The Reuters/Jefferies CRB Commodity Index also came under pressure and closed down 1.38% in line with the general trend.
