Consumer Confidence at 10-month Low
Dow Jones off 100+points, Nasdaq and S&P 500 also down for the day. Financials, materials and energy were among the biggest losers. We saw the VIX jumping above the $21 level right after the report on the consumer showed us a huge drop from 56.50 to 46. There were news also from Germany that overshadowed their earnings expectations.
We also need to remember about the mess with Greece; it has not been resolved.

Dow gained 3%+ for the week
The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained about 10 points, or 0.1 percent, closing above 10,400. After a four-day winning streak, the Dow gained about 3 percent for the week. . S&P 500 closed above the 50-Moving Average.
The dollar was up most of the day against the EURO and YEN, but it rolled over into the close and finished at a session low with a 0.5% loss against a basket of foreign currencies. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for January made a 0.2% monthly gain, which was slightly below the 0.3% increase that had been widely expected. Excluding food and energy, consumer prices for January actually slipped 0.1% month-over-month, instead of the 0.1% monthly increase that economists had forecast. We had the Oil closing above the $79.00 mark a barrel.
