Weekly Commentary
NASDAQ Continues to Climb; 28 Breakouts Gain >= 5%

The NASDAQ continued its winning ways with a gain of 2.15% easily outpacing the DJI (-0.1%) and S&P 500 (0.4%). despite there having been 2 successive negative quarters of GDP growth which some are calling a recession although the recession arbiter - the National Bureau of Economic Research - has yet to declare it. The more important economic news was the rate of job growth - double analysts expectations. This was seen as likely pushing the Fed to continue to aggressively raise interest rates which could have negatively affected the markets on Friday but the NASDAQ and S&P closed well above their lows and the DJI even made a slight gain on the day.
