It’s been a steady market that has continued to fend off jawboning from the Financial Media, which has gone from disbelief about the rally to hating the rally.  They are doing it under the guise its disconnected from the reality of the moment.

This is not the typical disbelief in a rally, which is par for the course, but visceral hatred that anyone, including the 57 million households that own mutual funds, could be making money.  The fact is this anger is mostly about worry the rally helps President Trump. 

The session has been led by heretofore laggards and some really old names.  Western Union (WU) is one of the original 11 Dow Jones Industrials components. 

Energy is the best performing sector with an OPEC meeting coming up and the global economy opening up.
