June 7 Market Close: GovCon Index and Indices Reverse Two Day Slide


The Executive Mosaic GovCon Index reversed it’s two day slide to close up 0.030 percent to 94.703.

All the U.S. indices were up on the eve of the U.K. election, the James Comey testimony, and uncertainty in the Middle East.

WTI broke through the $46 mark to close down 4.88 percent to $45.84 as the OPEC production cuts appear not to have an affect on global oil balance. U.S. stockpiles continue to rise.
