Good MorningThe equities market ended a good week on mixed footing Friday with blue-chips leading the day and tech shares lagging. The yield on the ten-year treasury is largely to blame rising to a new high above 1.60%. With the yield on the ten-year rising, investors should expect volatility to continue. Selling will be heaviest in over-valued names with lower than average yields and lightest in stocks that present value and Treasury-beating yields.
This week investors should be on the lookout for a slew of data including retail sales, business inventories, the home builders index, and key reads on the manufacturing sector. With the economy expected to fully reopen soon the expectations for good data are high. Along with the data are the last of the Q4 earnings reports including eCommerce leader Williams Sonoma and labor-market bellwether Cintas.

From Our Partners | | The U.S. Treasury still carries America's gold reserves at $42 per ounce — a price set generations ago. Buried in U.S. Code Title 31, Section 5117 is a provision allowing the Treasury to revalue those reserves to modern market prices. With gold now trading above $2,600 and record government debt putting pressure on the monetary system, attention is returning to this mechanism and what a revaluation could mean for the dollar and for private gold holders. Historically, when monetary systems shift, wealth doesn't disappear — it moves. The U.S. Gold Bureau has put together a complimentary Precious Metals IRA investor guide for Americans looking to understand how to position ahead of the next phase. | | Request Your Free Precious Metals IRA Guide from the U.S. Gold Bureau |
