Happy New Year

Having been off for a better part of two weeks, I missed quite a bit of action on the market.

It was an interesting break to see Cambodia and to be without internet and other amenities.

Will get back to posting the next few days and start planning for 2010.

Have a Blessed New Year

US : Indicators to look at this week

Some indicators coming up this Friday will be interesting to look at:

Retails Sales -
 - key as it accounts for 1/3 of US GDP
 - With the year to year figures gradually recovering, it would indicate whether recovery is sustained

Inventory to Sales
- Looking to see this returning to normal levels

Consumer Sentiment

- After last months dip, I would be looking to see it turn up again with the better job data last week
