Russel 2000 will Rebalance on Friday

Something important to be aware of, the Russel 2000 will rebalance on Friday the 24th. Keep in mind this adds a lot of volatility to individual stocks as they move in and out. According to Jesse this will also add momentum to the direction the market breaks on that day.
