June 29, 2009 Stock Market Recap

| No Comments

Today it certainly felt like a holiday week. Volume was on the light side and the market just drifted around. I think that the aftermath of Friday's Russell rebalancing had some effect as well. There were a lot of wacky moves in Russell stocks at the end of the day on Friday and many of those were unwound today. That's probably why the Russell 2000 was down today while the other indices were up a decent amount.

There's the possibility of month-end (and quarter-end) marking up (window dressing) tomorrow. That could make for an interesting session given the holiday-like volume we'll probably have.
