A significant drop in SPX today (Friday, 4/19). This was odd.... no comparative drop in the Russell 2000. XLE is up a bit. No big news headlines from Israel/Iran, Trump trial, etc. I did some digging.... It looks like NVDA is the only thing to drop big today. And due to its massive capitalization, i...

Israel struck back at Iran last night and SPX futures appear to be dropping. I'm thinking of selling my Fidelity SPX fund while it's still over 5000, if I can catch it still above 5000.
