Aug 16th Stock Market Update - Strong retail sales, increasing consumer confidence lifts stocks

Market

“After the violent move lower in early Aug, stocks moved much higher this week on back of consumer confidence and spending. As I mentioned 2 weeks ago, this is a strong market.” 😊 😋

Slow move higher today for all stock indices, on the back of no news

Chinese stocks Alibaba and JD.com were both among the biggest gainers after earnings reports that were not terrific, but better than expected. I dont expect these gains to continue.
