A slew of corporate earnings came in today triggering a rise in the tech sector even though the biggest player, Alphabet/Google, came in after the bell with estimate busting earnings but since it was after the bell, today’s record Nasdaq high can hardly be attributed to it. A sharp spike in consumer confidence, 10% above estimates, might have sparked some more risk-taking in tech as well.  However, the 10-year Treasury once again rose, today to its highest since July, which brought the Dow down. Volume was above the 11.5 billion average, today coming in at 12.59 billion.
