Stocks started the day off on the right foot, thanks to a good earnings report from CSCO and fantastic news that US productivity grew 3% in the most recent quarter.

What started out as a crazy morning, once again, for stocks, quickly turned into a day of steady advances. The treat of the day and the possible cause to this was another fall in crude oil prices. The fall today, after yesterday, brings the two day total to 8.9%. Besides that, however, there was no [...]

Stocks gained ground off of crude oil rising 2%, drifting with an upward bias on the DJ and downward bias to a green close. The gains in the face of bad news was a clear sign of just how strong this market STILL is.
