Top 6 reasons for In-person or Virtual!
ROBARE & JONES ON THE MARKETS
Well The Standard & Poor's 500 index slipped 0.1% this week, its first weekly decline in a month. Those market results came amid reports of a planned increase in the US capital gains tax rate, but also better-than-expected corporate earnings and economic data. The weekly decline came despite falling US cases of COVID-19, as the US State Department added more than 100 countries to its "do not travel" advisory list, which now covers about 80% of countries worldwide. Investors also fretted over reports that US President Joe Biden is planning to propose nearly doubling the capital gains tax rate for wealthy individuals. By sector, energy had the largest percentage drop of the week, down 1.8%, and real estate had the largest gain of just up over 2%.

Let's take a look at the benchmarks from this past week!
