In case you missed it, here’s a summary of the ETF topics and market reviews I posted to my blog during the week ending on 10/28/2012.
It was a different story this week as continued unimpressive earnings and guidance, uncertainty about the election and the usual host of European issues came to the forefront and pulled the major indexes lower.
The S&P 500 lost some 1.5%, broke clearly through its widely followed 50-day moving average and is now within striking distance of breaking the psychologically important 1,400 level to the downside.
Of course, much depends on if downward momentum continues next week although the powers to be are attempting whatever they can to not ruffle the market feathers too much prior to the election.
Over past week, we covered the following:
