EB Watch List Update Report
Dear Members,
KEY EARNINGS REPORTS:
Tuesday: AZO, BBY, DKS, SINA
Wednesday: HRB, PETM,
MARKET NOTE:
I mentioned some reward to risk issues on the NASDAQ yesterday; it had become technically overbought, it hit a key level at 5000. Now today we're seeing selling on all of the major indexes. So far there has been no technical damage and as long as the S&P holds 2089 the bulls will keep the upper hand. We've got the Fed Beige Book coming out tomorrow then the monthly non-farm payroll report on Friday. Both are important and could impact the market. In fact bond yields are holding today with the ten year treasury note approaching 2.10%. Possibly some hedging ahead of these upcoming reports.
