During the last week, the world continued to digest the ongoing European debt crisis. Investors turned to commodities as a safe haven from the crisis. As oil continued to trade higher, traders began buying shares of alternative energy companies. The strong performance of commodities helped the Leveraged ETFs Index. The two best performers were both leveraged to a commodity. As gold set record highs this week and other precious metals performed well, some Indexes were pulled higher because of golds performance.

Top tickerspy ETF Indexes:

The Green ETFs Index has risen 1.3% over the last week. As oil traded higher over the last week, investors looked for alternative forms of energy.
