Examples of rally in a Sentence

1. Stephan Rieke:

   Yesterday's rally was a bit overdone and investors are taking profit as they prepare for the holiday. Lower oil prices this morning and weaker U.S. markets gave the pretext to sell, looking forward, I expect volatility to persist in the coming sessions, but the market could gain some strength as we move into 2016.

Biden then seemed to imply that Trump was responsible for the Aug. 3 shooting at a Walmartin El Paso, Texas, that left 22 people dead. Remember in 18, {Trump] claimed there was an invasion of Latinos coming across the border? Theyre going to invade and pollute America, well guess what? The words presidents say matter.
