Markets were up today on positive news. One interesting story was that Arby’s is buying Wendy’s for $2.34 billion dollars. I love both of these companies so I think this is a good match. Surprisingly Ford now has a 100 million dollar profit in their first quarter. Maybe because they cut all of their employees and benefits? Home sales are at the lowest point in almost 17 years but unemployment claims just dropped. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 163 points up 1.28 percent with 2 hours of trading left for the day. The Nasdaq was up 37 points up 1.54 percent for the day.
