Good morning as we start the sixth week on this the 38th day of 2005.
Before the regular open, stock index futures are trading flat to marginally higher. With a light economic release calendar early this week, continuation – or not – of the recent rally is likely to depend more on corporate earnings and investors taking their own pulse.
