Market metrics - stock indexes, treasury yields and gold, silver, and WTI oil over the past week

building on Lastlib's every Friday market metrics in Personal Finance and Investing Group

Percentage change from 3/6 to 3/13
(the yield changes are the percentage points differences,
e.g. for the 2-Y Treasury, it went from 3.56% to 3.72%. a change of +0.16%)

PctChg, Entity, 3/13 closing value
------------------------------
-1.99% Dow   46,558.47
-1.60% S&P 500   6,632.19
-1.26% NASDAQ   22,105.36
+0.16% 2-Yr Treas   3.72%
+0.13% 5-Yr Treas   3.86%
+0.15% 10-Yr Treas   4.28%
-3.05% Gold   5023.10
-5.41% Silver   80.11
+8.80% WT Oil   99.30


Treasury notes' yields up means the notes' values are down
as likely people's bond portfolios are down

For a 6- to 9-month perspective, depending on which graph, I like pasting these in because the automatically update. I wish I had one for the S&P 500, but I don't, oh well.

Dow, Oil, and Dollar (last several months) - they update a few hours (like about 6 hours) after the close

The attacks on Iran began on February 28.

Dow 30,  


Crude Oil


US Dollar Index (DX-Y.NYB)


The graphs above update automatically. So they are up-to-date a few hours after each close.

There should be 3 graphs above. If you see little image squares and no graphs, right click on each such image square and choose Load Image.

Many of course focus on precious metals, commodities, MAG7, crypto .......... so don't take my guru's opinions for anything other than awareness of someone's perspective ......

I've been following this guy since 2012 when he had a website called In the Money Stocks. He's a sound technician



And I like this economist, though he's skeptical of all US parties at various points, but this one is worth the listen just for his idea there will be in regime change .... in the US!
