Stocks Have Benefited from Flight to Quality - Media Wrong Again

stocks
U.S. stocks and bonds produced a strong week for the period ended November 20, 2015. It was not because the market was warming up to the idea of a Fed rate hike, as the business media perceived. Rather, it was far more likely due to a flight to quality as investors perceived greater safety in U.S. securities, and in gold for a time being. And let’s not forget that last week’s gains simply made up the losses of the week before. See the report on the real reason stocks soared here.
