The View from 5th Avenue

The View at Two – 24 April 2020

It’s a Friday! Fridays have not been kind to equities this year, with indexes closing in the green only 26% of the time (tough to take risk during the virus outbreak).  Currently though, stocks are trying to beat those odds.  Led by Tech/ Semis, the S&P is hovering near its 50 day moving average (2807). Underperforming? Energy names are giving up some of their 15% gains seen this week (even in the wake of the Oil implosion).  US Treasuries are also stable today, with the 10-year yield currently sitting at 0.60%  Next week is busy for the Central Banks, and the Fed meets Tuesday and Wednesday. Plus, earnings will be in full swing (especially from the FANG gang).
