Description
Stocks wrap up a volatile week with a rally after yet another roller coaster ride as long term government bond yields make unusually wide moves before pulling back. The Dow ended the week with a closing gain of nearly 600 points. The bond market has reportedly just had its third worst week since the year 1830. Oil prices spike to the highest in nearly 2 years, moving above $66 a barrel. Gas prices in L.A. have hit the highest in more than a year. Better than expected news on the job front as the economy adds 379K jobs last month and the nation's unemployment rate slips to 6.2. Meanwhile work continues in Washington on a $1.9T Covid relief package and vaccine rollouts continue.
