Good MorningAlthough equity markets ended November with a whimper the month was one of the strongest on record. The S&P 500 alone is up more than 10% for the month and trading at new all-time highs. The Dow Jones Industrial and Transportation Averages both ended the month at new all-time highs pointing to further gains in the year ahead. Although there are still risks to earnings, the outlook for the 4th quarter of 2020 and all of 2021 is brightening by the day.
This week is going to be a big one for the market. There is a raft of economic data due out including the all-important NFP report on Friday. The market is looking for 446,000 net new jobs for the month which is down from the previous 638,000. A weak number could send the market lower but investors should take it with a grain of salt. The consensus 446,000 is weak on a month to month basis but still a very strong gain for the broad economy.
