About this episode

It was probably too soon for the S&P 500 to feel the impact of Black Friday, but the index did just fine without it, closing the day, the week, and the month higher. The same could be said for the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Nasdaq Composite. The small cap Russell 2000 saw the biggest monthly gain though – up 10% since Donald Trump won the election. European stocks shrugged off poor inflation data to see the Stoxx 600 also close November 0.96% higher. Europe is now focused on political events in France. Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis, joins the show to talk on a range of topics, including why the charts still look good for the S&P 500 as we head into year end.
