leading to a sprightly rally to new record highs is a fitting turn for a stock market whose defining feature right now is a dearth of determined sellers.
That was Friday's story, a 700,000-job shortfall in April relative to forecasts acting as an excuse for a relief bid in underperforming growth stocks with no evidence from sturdy cyclical sectors that investors were rethinking the near-universal expectations for a strong U.S. economic revival underway.
Of course, every share that's bought is also sold. And, for sure, many precincts of the market — speculative-growth stocks, IPOs, alternative-energy plays — have indeed been battered by liquidations.
