Weekly Commentary
The NASDAQ Composite moved sideways this week, closing with only a 0.1% gain. A new high was set on Monday but the index was in retreat for the rest of the week as the index continued to consolidate the gains of the last two months. Volumes were mostly below average indicating traders moved cautiously as odds of a rate hike by the Federal Reserve before year end increased. Our market signals remain positive for all three major indexes.
