What is ahead next week for stocks

The market is down slightly Friday, but overall the market is very strongly for the week. DOW made 3 straight days of new highs this week. Nasdaq was up almost 2%. What I have seen this week is that the uptrend is mostly for big cap stocks, hopefully this trend can help the small cap stocks as well. The most important thing worries traders is rather if the economy is slowing down, not inflation worry as in previous months.
