Domestic and international stocks fell last week despite some positive economic indicators in the US. Treasury yields also declined as concerns about slowing global growth remained. Commodity prices dropped significantly, with several commodities reaching multi-year lows. While US economic data such as home sales and jobless claims were encouraging, corporate earnings came in mixed with some large technology companies reporting disappointing results. Overall, markets pulled back after recent highs, though the earnings season has started out better than expected overall.
