Sweet week for the market, up nicely, but if you look a little bit farther back, were actually right where we ended up in may. We went nowhere in june. What would move the market up or down Going Forward . Yeah, thats right. The market had a great week. The s p 500 finished up 4 . Only up 2 from a month ago, its gone nowhere. Theres been this push and pull between good news, we had a lot this week, both the payrolls numbers close to 5 million new jobs added, better manufacturing surveys, and that caused investors to overlook a lot of the bad coronavirus news. But thats just making back what we lost last week when the coronavirus news was the focus of the market, and were really going nowhere right now. Jack so what could change that .

Theres companies that have these weird reporting schedules.
