Markets had an excellent day.  In the last 2 days, the Wed losses were pretty well recovered.  Dow was up 160 last week & 200 in Nov (following the strong Oct).  Today traders were heartened that they didn't hear negative news from Europe.  However, European debt fears should be alive because they have not gone away.  Next week, the discord  in DC over how to reduce the federal deficit will take center stage & that will get ugly because there is little agreement between the Reps & Dems.
