S&P 500 And Nasdaq 100 Forecast – Monday, March 13

S&P 500 And Nasdaq 100 Forecast – Monday, March 13

S&P 500 The S&P 500 rallied on Friday, as it looks very likely to continue to go higher.

Monday Market Commentary – March 13, 2017 Stocks Sell Near-Term – Update: Friday showed a light uptick but the near-term trend remains down.

EUR/USD Bullish Momentum Reaches 1.0750 Resistance Zone

EUR/USD 4 hour The EUR/USD broke above the resistance trend line (dotted red) of the consolidation zone (red/green) and has reached the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of wave 2 (purple).

Why Did Silver Fall

Why Did Silver Fall

The price of silver in dollar terms dropped from about 18 bucks to about 17, or about 5 percent. The facile answer is manipulation. With no need of evidence—indeed with no evidence—one […]
