24/7 Wall St.

Despite last week ending on a moderately lower note, the Trump rally rolled on for yet another week of gains for investors. With trading volume expected to dive as we get ready to enjoy the holidays and close out 2016, we may see more slow trading days like last Friday. The futures were trading modestly higher Monday morning, indicating a slightly higher open.
