The DOW pushed higher at the open and ended the session up 92 points at 13943 and closing in on the 14,000 resistance level, watch this level for a break or bounce. The S&P gapped up at the open but could not add to this and closed up 7 points. While the NASDAQ gapped at the open but fell back during the session to close the day up 3 points. The FTSE, writes Greg, 100 climbed at the open then spent the rest of the day trading sideways in a tight range to close up 39 points. But the FTSE 250 fell back from its opening gap to close the day down 37 points. Futures – DOW is called down 10 points, FTSE is called down 10 points. Oil is trading at $74.60 a barrel and gold at $681.5.
