U.S. stocks finished a thinly-traded day with POTUS Obama angering some, pleasing others with a call for net neutrality. Marketwatch tells MHProNews that commodities – gold and oil dropped – while modest gains set record levels for the fourth straight session. Randy Frederick, Managing Director of Trading and Derivatives at the Schwab Center for Financial Research, said:
“Falling oil prices will dent earnings of energy related companies, but lower gasoline prices will free up consumer spending. The consumer component of GDP far outweighs the corporate component.”
