week after week

The market had its best week in 5-1/2 years. Unfortunately this followed the worst week in history and we're still way down from two weeks ago.

Let's see. The Dow finished last week at 8451 and finished this week at 8852. So it was up 401 points or 4.7%. However, to give this perspective, the previous week it finished at 10325, so last week it was down 1874 or 18.2%.
