A few big events this week include Apple reporting its earnings after the bell tonight and the release of Q1 preliminary GDP and the FOMC rate announcement on Wednesday. We'll also get a number of important earnings reports tomorrow including MRK and PFE in the healthcare sector. The Dow continues to lag some but did get within 100 points of its all time high earlier in the session. But all eyes will be on AAPL's numbers after the bell as it could have a noticeable impact on the overall market come the morning. ADDITIONS TO WATCH LISTS: There are no additions to the Watch List today. However, as we get closer to the end of earnings season we will be looking for some additional high reward to risk trading candidates that meet our strict criteria of strong earnings and strong technical charts. Stay tuned! BRIEF COMMENTS ON SELECT WATCH LIST STOCKS: Short Watch List: There are no Short Watch List stocks at this time. Large Cap Watch List DATA - Confirmed breakout last week now pulling back to test price support near $100. Note that stock almost touched our target price Friday and today so don't hesitate to take profits off the table. LNKD - A close over $265.35 would represent a bullish inverse head and shoulders pattern. We are raising our stop to $256 and note that the company reports on Thursday so will be coming off before that date. MCO - This stock is at a high since we put it on and has developed a negative divergence. Also, the company reports on Friday so we are REMOVING FROM OUT WATCH LIST. NICE TRADE! PCLN - Stock breaking out on heavy volume. Close above $1250 would be bullish. Mid Cap Watch List RYL - Stock reports its earnings on Thursday so will be coming off by then. We are raising our stop to a close below $44. Continuing advance throughout the week to its key moving averages might be a good place to exit. Small Cap Watch List No comments on Small Caps today DELETIONS FROM OUR WATCH LISTS: MCO is being removed from our Watch List. Also, note that RHT will no longer remain on the Watch List. There are no other deletions unless a Watch List stock hits its stop loss. At your service, John Hopkins, Earnings Beats
