Could one of the weakest sectors of the market last quarter turn the page and become one of the strongest this earnings season? A rally on the street today was led by retail of all things. The extension of yesterday’s gains wasn’t exactly a rocketing move higher, but it did provide enough of a bid to push all of the major stock market indexes into the green on the session. This and more in today’s Dave’s Daily Dive Video.
