Strategy Review: Financial markets moved from cautious on Wednesday (February 12) as signs of a pneumonia outbreak or slowdown in mainland China weakened, and Federal Reserve Chairman Colin Powell reiterated confidence in the U.S. economic outlook, further releasing optimism, with money continuing to flow into the stock market, with the Dow, The S and P and Nasdaq index all-time highs, with the Dow “chasing back” by more than 270 points.
