Markets Gain over 2.5% in Week

While all three indexes closed higher than last Friday, the DJIA’s 2.81% increase was a bit ahead of the S&P500’s 2.76% and the 2.73% of NASDAQ.

Monday’s down close was followed by two up days, a drop on Thursday and the week closed with an uptick.

NASDAQ led the indexes today, with its .64% gain; the S&P500 followed, turning in a .46% increase, with the DJIA trailing with just a plus .39% improvement.

The chances of having a second straight negative day (about 10% of all trading days) are almost the same as the 11 – 12% of upticks following a down day.
