1 Week Til WallStrip...
Happy Colombus Day! For some reason all the banks and even the bond market are closed today, leaving the stock market to fend for itself. I imagine it'll be a low volume and low volatility affair today due to the -cough- holiday. But there's no shortage of movers in the pre-market. I'll be watching gold, oil and Google among others.
