Markets begin with a downward bias

Stocks were slipping slightly ahead of the opening bell at the NYSE. Today might be another quiet kind of day. Oil & gold off to a good start as both are leaving their support levels behind.

Employers shed 23K jobs in Mar, below expectations for an increase in jobs. However, the numbers were still less than the adjusted 24K jobs lost in Feb. Statistics are from a report by a private employment service. This follows a rise of 40K private-sector jobs last month. After suggesting a weak recovery, this will give a negative bias at that the opening.



Greece is planning another offering of bonds to help pay off their debts. There is not a lot of news expected on the last day of Mar & qtr. The averages had a good month, Dow is up 6% but the advance has been fading in recent days. I'm taking the rest of the day off, have a good day.
