Add it all up and yes, we are now in a brand new bull market. Heres another reason for the rally. Terrific performance from major retailers, target, out today with a blowout report.

Because this is, the story were going to be hearing tonight is about a world war ii, very important and famous and dramatic as you will hear world war ii raid into norway conducted primarily by norwegians.
