Bobbys Corner-Open Market-March.16.2012

Posted: 16 Mar 2012 05:25 AM PDT

Good Morning:

A very lackluster evening session as the markets await this morning’s CPI data.  With the US economy picking up speed, and inflation following the trend-the Fed may not be able to continue with their very accommodate monetary policy.  The magic number for CPI seems to be 3%.  If investors and the Fed see this data go over 3% year to date-they will need to re access their policies.

Asian equity markets were mixed-while European markets are higher, along with US Futures.

Gold, Silver and most metals are lower.
Oil is higher-still trading under $106/bbl.

HAVE A GREAT DAY-WEEKEND & GOOD LUCK
