Thinkstock

This past week was relatively flat for the U.S. broad markets, still better than the first week of December, which saw a 4% loss in both the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones industrial average. With December now in full swing, the number of major companies reporting tends to slow down as Christmas gets closer.
