Monday Market Recap

Stock futures plunged after the Jobs report on Friday.

Today the market realized that bad is again good - It recovered Friday's losses and for good measure  proceeded to rally an additional .6%.

It was the second consecutive Monday rally.  Last Monday's rally was swiftly negated the following trading session.  Will tomorrow see stocks suffer a similar fate?

Tuesday Market Recap

Stocks opened the day lower, rallied back to even,  and then collapsed into the close, ending the last day of the quarter sharply lower.

S&P500 Futures are now trading below Monday's open.

$WYNN rocketed 6% higher today.  What a difference one day can make.  Yesterday I talked about how terrible sentiment was for the stock, and today investors couldn't buy it quick enough.  More on that in a few.  What about the market?  Where is it headed?
