  • Was Last Week’s Rally Legitimate?
  • Weekly Market Preview:  Do Falling Treasury Yields Fuel More Upside in Stocks?
  • Weekly Economic Cheat Sheet:  Is the “Growth Scare” Starting to Appear?

Futures are modestly higher on momentum from last week’s big rally, following a mostly quiet weekend of news.

Economically, Euro Zone Composite PMI met expectations (46.5) while German Manufacturers’ Orders beat (0.2% vs. (E ) -1.1%) but there was a negative revision and overall, the data isn’t moving markets.

Geo-politically, Israeli forces are moving further into Gaza but so far risks of a broadening conflict remain relatively low.

Today there are no notable economic reports and just one Fed speaker, Cook (11:00 a.m. ET), so look for Treasury yields to continue to drive short term trading.  If the 10-year yield continues to decline then the S&P 500 can extend last week’s rally.
