The Week 49 of 2021 US Stock Market News Recap
By Larry C. Paxton
The US Stock Market Week 49 Summary:
Like Week 48, The Stock Market Bull aggressively took over the pasture on Monday of Week 49. But unlike the previous week, he kept gaining ground on Tuesday and Wednesday, but at a decreasing pace. The Stock Market Bear saw the opening and took Thursday. But this angered The Stock Market Bull who came back loudly snorting on Friday. Throughout Week 49 the economic news was a little mixed, but the news on the new Omnicore COVID-19 variant indicated that while it spread faster the effects were much milder than other variants. The Stock Market Bull gets a clear 3-0 Week 49 victory and prevents The Stock Market Bear from getting the trifecta after his two weeks of wins. What awaits us in Week 50?
