The ending was a bit of a disappointment, with the S&P 500 logging a 3.4% loss on Friday. Still, what a week. The 17.7% rally between Monday's and Thursday's closes translated into a full-week gain of 10.2%, which is the best week for the market since 1938. Not bad. We're still in no-man's land, of course.
