Trading was volatile from day to day as inflation fears weighed heavily on the financial markets and consumers.

NAHB housing was 83.0 vs 81.0. Weaker data mid-week and continued billion-dollar daily Fed MBS purchases helped recover the losses and more by the end of the week. Housing starts were 1.52M vs the expected 1.57M. Weekly jobless claims were 268K vs 260K. Leading Economic Indicators rose 0.9% vs 1.0%.
