The market still remains close to the 200 day average that is providing a huge level of resistance.  Float cautiously but watch, if the market pulls back, you might want to secure the gains. 

Initial jobless claims were higher than expected at 424,000.  This continues to show the lack of confidence in businesses to invest within and expand.  Seattle’s local job market continues to draw attention because of the strength and size of local businesses hiring such as Amazon.  Working closely with a relocation company in Seattle definitely shows companies are hiring locally.
