jobs and GDP week. I wouldn't be surprised if the media is telling people to the end of the week. This is the week I was talking about a few posts back. I expected some bounce but it was going to be short lived against all the jobs numbers and GDP. My guess is the numbers will look bad and drive the markets deeper. ( unless there are some surprise revisions to last months or quarters numbers ;-) )

Fed statement next week so that might pop the markets to the upside. Might be a good opportunity to by the end of the week or Monday next week
