The “Heat Map”

Most
of the time the U.S. stock market looks to 3 factors (call them the “pillars”
that support the stock market) to support its upward trend – let’s grade each
of the pillars. 


CONSUMER SPENDING:  I grade this factor a C- (below average



THE FED AND ITS POLICIES:  I continue to grade this factor an A+ (extremely favorable) because the
FED cannot do much more than it is doing to support the stock market and asset
prices.



BUSINESS PROFITABILITY:  I continue to grade this factor an A (very favorable). 



NOTE:  no change from prior week.
