COLLEEN MCEDWARDS, CNN ANCHOR: Well, it's a closed day on the markets, but Jennifer Westhoven is in New York with a look back at a pretty good week -- lots of green on people's screens this week.</s>JENNIFER WESTHOVEN, CNN CORRESPONDENT: A lot of green. Good morning to you, Colleen. U.S. markets are closed today, of course, observing Good Friday, but that gives investors a three-day weekend to wonder about whether the markets have actually found the bottom, because if you look at the closing numbers for this shortened trading week, it shows a start of a small bull run -- people are wondering if it's got legs. A 3.25 percent surge helped the Nasdaq cap off its best week of the year. The index closed higher each day this week, surging 14 percent in just four days. The Dow recovered about 3.5 percent over the week. But if one small business group is correct, rising unemployment figures could weigh on the markets. The National Federation of Independent Business is forecasting the nation's unemployment rate to hit 5 percent by the fall, according to "The Wall Street Journal," and levels haven't been that high since 1997. The group also says the number of hard-to-fill job openings has pulled off the three-year lows set back in February. NFIB is the nation's largest small business lobbying group. And that's a quick look at business news. Colleen, back to you.</s>MCEDWARDS: All right, thanks very much.
