Third straight week of gains for majors
The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained nearly 81 points since last Friday to close the week at 11492, a .7% rise. The NASDAQ gained a slight 5 points to end the week at 2643, .2% up. However, all but three stocks in the 20 Solar Stocks Index gained in price and the composite fell nearly 9 points to finish at 404, about a 3% slide. This is rather typical for solar as sales are stronger in the warm-weather months and solar power systems do not fit into the standard holiday shopping list.
