Zowie --looking like a lovely way to set up the weekend! After yesterday's recovered losses into gains w/ mixed volume (NASDAQ strong), today's futures traders have stocks +0.67% and metals +1.07%! No major reports scheduled; looking (imho) like a 'holiday feel-good' session.Related thread: US stock futures soar after China’s surprise rate cut http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3229480/posts ..
