U.S. stocks were mixed during the week with strength in the Nasdaq and Russell indexes, while the S&P 500 was slightly positive and the Dow Jones Industrials closing negative on the week. U.S jobs reported on Friday were solid, giving notion to the idea that the FOMC will raise rates again in their June meeting.

With earnings winding down and the summer around the corner, risk in the markets has shifted from domestic to overseas. Potential catalysts are trade disputes with China, politics in Europe, and peace negotiations with North Korea.

U.S. stocks were relatively quiet during the week. Entering the summer we can expect trading volumes to decline along with market volatility. However, the energy market has been volatile, crude oil dropped 4% on Friday.

If there is any risk in the market currently it will come from overseas. Some potential catalysts include European elections, North Korea, and trade negotiations with China.
