Jay - The DOW is 30 stocks.. they can punch program buttons and move that pretty easily. The S&P and nasdaq however are much wider index's and not as easy to move around. So, while the DOW is up 50, the NASD is red by 7 and the S&P is flat.
- The precarious financial derivatives exposure: A $670 trillion, high-risk, out-of-control casino that's highly leveraged versus the $50 trillion total annual GDP of all nations. We forget that derivatives almost destroyed global economies in 2008-2009 and could once again by 2012.
- In the three years beginning in 2012, more than $700 billion in risky, high-yield corporate debt will start to mature. And that could drop a hammer down on the junk bond market.
- The European Central Banks (ECB's) Financial Stability Review said in the first week of June that banks must renew about 800 billion euros ($950 billion) in debt by the end of 2012, and that they would be competing head-on with governments in the bond markets.
- A new study obtained by CNBC says Americans are $6.6 trillion short of what they need to retire. The study, conducted by Boston College's Center for Retirement Research, says savings have been squeezed by declines in stock and housing values.
I suppose you think its normal for the dow to stand alone wile the spx & nasdaq lag behind aT MUCH LOWER VALUES IN comparison
ReplyDeletemaybe they will catch up at the close?
I doubt that.
