Monday's Recap

Today has been a great day for the markets and economy. I am very anxious to hear that in today's economic crisis, divorce rates are down! People are delaying divorces and being forced to stay in unpleasant situations because they are afraid of being alone in this time of crisis. I guess this is good and bad! Also, today the Dow rose 2.3%. This increase was fueled by gains posted in the banking components. Banks had some favorable returns this period. So, people are slowly starting to gain confidence in the markets again. DJIA +185.16 S&P 500 +21.92 NASDAQ +37.18
