Dow Snapshot
"Stocks rallied Wednesday, with the Dow logging triple-digit gains, as European debt noise faded and investors focused on an improving domestic economy and corporate earnings. The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) gained 149 points, or 1.4%, ending for the first time above last Wednesday's close, before turmoil swept through the market, culminating in last Thursday's flash crash."

Of Note in Australia Today:- Unemployment Rate (Apr) (Moderate volatility expected)
[The Unemployment Rate release by the Australian Bureau of Statistics is the number of unemployed workers divided by the total civilian labor force. If the rate hikes, indicates a lack of expansion within the Australian labor market. As a result, a rise leads to weaken the Australian economy. A decrease of the figure is seen as positive (or bullish) for the AUD, while an increase is seen as negative (or bearish).]- Employment Change (Apr) (Moderate volatility expected)
[The Employment Change released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics is a measure of the change in the number of employed people in Australia. Generally speaking, a rise in this indicator has positive implications for consumer spending which stimulates economic growth. Therefore, a high reading is seen as positive (or bullish) for the AUD, while a low reading is seen as negative (or bearish).]
