    today could be the first time since 2002 that the SPX has started off a year with 3 consecutive +0.50% gains or more. the record is 4 in 1979.

    also, only once in the history of the SPX has it started a new year with 3 consecutive ATHs. 1964 was the only other year.

    yeah this feels like 2017 all over again lol. :D

    absent any major pullback into the close today, we're looking at the best weekly (albeit a holiday-shortened one) gain since after the pres. election.

    also looking good for the FFD (first five days) which concludes next monday.

    so far this start to the year is turning out to be a very bullish scenario for the full year.
