|Markets are risk-on and the Dow Jones Industrial Average has just rocketed through a key watched level for the first time in more than a month.
The DJIA has climbed by 1.3% to 24,664 and through the 50-day MA located at 24,623 currently.
Similarly, the S&P 500 is up by 1.1% on Monday so far closing on its 50-day MA as well.
