Mild Monday

While the unrest continues in the Middle East, the tension on Wall Street eased. Oil pulled back to the $75 range, despite predicitons of $100 per barrel. The Dow and NASDAQ eked out small gains on the day. This was due, mainly, to good economic reports. Industrial sectors posted strong numbers for June. So, while the world may be going to h**l in a handbasket, business marches on! Dow +8.01 NASDAQ +0.37 S&P 500 -1.71
