There was little market-moving economic or corporate news on this last trading day of the season. Rather, the press reviewed the unexpectedly bullish nature of the trading/investing year that has just come to a close, and - as discussed here yesterday – indulged in further bullish forecasts for the coming year.
Please note that Tuesday (January 2) will be a national day of mourning for the former US President Gerald Ford. As a result, most traders will enjoy a four-day weekend (details below). The bond market will be open, but will see an early close.
