Good Morning Traders,
US - Market Reflections - Tuesday, 7th June, 2011
The Dow couldn't hold up Tuesday, losing early gains to end fractionally lower at 12,070. Ben Bernanke may have been to blame, saying economic growth is still below trend. Oil ended at $99 with gold at $1,545.
Market Focus in the US this evening
Watch for afternoon reaction to the Beige Book which will offer timely anecdotal commentary on the economy.
