ANOTHER BUSY WEEK AHEAD


Earnings once again will be on the front burner next week. 

After what some would call an interesting week in another case of  good news for one may be bad news for the other as in a heavy weight economy versus the market match up.

You can almost hear them now: "Please, please don't take away the punch bowl." And some of the punch evaporated from the UK manufacturing bowl as the purchasing manager's index there dropped more than expected and the pound took a haircut to $1.6848 from $1.687 to settle at a seven week low.


The S&P 500 SPX and the German DAX 30 suffered their biggest weekly loss in two years. The DAX shed 2.1% for the week and the S&P 500 2.7% and, if as they say misery loves company, the DJIA refused to be left out, cratering 2.8%, its biggest weekly decline since late January this year.
