Sales in the 2018 U.S. holiday shopping season rose 5.1 percent to over $850 billion, the strongest in six years, according to a Mastercard report. The S&P 500 retailing index jumped 7.4 percent, while shares of online retailer Amazon , which touted a "record-breaking" season, climbed 9.4 percent.
Stocks found their footing after wobbling in morning trade. The S&P 500 came within 2 points of falling 20 percent from its late-September closing high, a threshold commonly used to define a bear market.

"The market is extremely oversold where we left it" on Monday, said Brett Ewing, chief market strategist at First Franklin Financial Services in Tallahassee, Florida.

"You cannot make the assumption that this correction is over, but today's action is definitely a very positive signal."

To stop blatant rigging of the gold price via vast*** quantities of synthetic gold derivates

***The gold market is bigger than all financial markets – exceeded only by bond and money markets. A point to consider here is that gold is not traded at the commodity desks of large banks. It is traded at the currency desks. And a staggering $250 billion worth of gold changes hands on a daily basis via the London Metals Exchange.

Gold has risen to $1276!
$1300 getting closer.

Trump criticised the Fed in this tweet - "The only problem our economy has is the Fed. They don’t have a feel for the Market, they don’t understand necessary Trade Wars or Strong Dollars or even Democrat Shutdowns over Borders. The Fed is like a powerful golferwho can’t score because he has no touch - he can’t putt!"

That was after his Treasury Secretary spooked the market when he enquired about Bank liquidity.
