Market Review and Outlook for Industrial Stocks
Market last week showed renewed activity and strength in industrials pushing toward new ground while railroads lagged. The rally may prove a false upmove if carried without broader participation, with caution warranted as gains exceed typical single-peak patterns. Steel sector indicators remain bullish given rising unfilled orders and growing stockholder participation, suggesting higher prices later in the year, aided by gold imports and a favorable balance of trade, though deflation risk and credit limits temper optimism.
