Last week’s call worked out only partially as we saw a minor dip though we stayed within my range of no more than 2%.
For this week we’ve got a mixed signal on the board. Due to last Friday’s non-farm payroll numbers futures are in the red. I do expect weakness to continue early in the week. Closing the week we will be flat.
