  wildfires in the western United States and Canada.
• 6:07
  Evacuation orders are in place across parts of

  the western United States and southwest Canada.
• 6:13
  as extremely hot and dry conditions fuel the
• 6:16
  spread of wildfires in the region. The National

  Interigency Fire Center reported 183 new fires,
• 6:24
  including eight large ones, since Saturday. More

  data due this week, as the pace of earnings reports

  rally to record highs shows that the market of

  stocks is doing much better than it appears on

  the surface. Earlier this year, there was concern
• 7:26
  that the market's rally was too narrow, driven
• 7:29
  by a small number of mega -capitalization technology

  companies. However, that has changed. The more

  stocks participating in the rally, the merrier.
