Tactics that Work in Good Markets and Bad
 
--

Dear Subscribers,

After a rough start on Monday the market fought back to a breakeven finish. And that is right at 1150 for the S&P 500…equal to the recent high made on January 19th. I sense that if we can't break above this week, then this leg of the market rally will be over. Most likely we will fall back a notch or two during a consolidation period. Hopefully first quarter earnings reported in early April will be strong enough to bring the rally back to life.

Here are some top commentaries for your consideration:
•  Bull vs. Bear Case for the Market
•  Industrial Production Edges Up
•  Top 5 High Yield Bond Funds

Best,

Steve Reitmeister
