📈 Markets Monday for 2024-12-30
This week’s Market Monday focuses on key indicators from Yahoo Finance and a spicy stock recap.
As a reminder, this is an end of day snapshot…
Quick Recap
For Market Monday, I continue to look at the same key indicator that I take from a simple Yahoo Finance webpage each week. It’s how I look at things through the lens of the closing bell on Monday.
Last week:

Spicy level 6… and quantum remains in the top 2!
This week:

Spicy level 1… and the end of year calm arrives.
Previously, I decided on a view from Yahoo Finance. For example, this was a view of intraday in Technology which usually gets around a dozen or so interesting companies when the market is moving and a smaller handful of companies when the market is not moving as much.
If you are using Yahoo Applied Filters for Stocks screener you can bookmark your own heat map view.
