- Friday, May 17, 3:03 PM Stocks move to new session highs an hour before the bell, perhaps soothed by the FOMC's Kocherlakota arguing the Fed isn't easy enough. It's the opposite of 24 hours ago when John Williams' hawkish words knocked the markets for a few points. (SPY +0.9%), (DIA +0.4%), (QQQ +0.8%). 10 Comments
- Friday, May 17, 8:13 AM Thomas Lee lifts his year-end S&P 500 (SPY) forecast to 1,715 from 1,580 as the bull has already outrun his expectations. His team sees clues economic performance is picking up, including the outperformance of semiconductors (XSD) vs. transports (IYT), and the steepening of the 10 year/30 year Treasury curve. Risk/reward is particularly appealing in tech (XLK), healthcare (XLV), and financials (XLF). Comment!
- Friday, May 17, 6:54 AM S&P 500 (SPY) futures +0.3% and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) futures +0.2% as stocks look to shake off yesterday's minor slide. The big mover overseas was Shanghai, +1.4%. Stocks rose again in Tokyo and Europe is modestly higher. 1 Comment
- Thursday, May 16, 7:38 AM Cisco (CSCO) is now up 9.4% premarket following last night's earnings and guidance. Lazard's Ryan Hitchinson notes guidance was light, but likely beat a lot of the whispers out there. He also believes management is remaining conservative amid improving demand trends. A bellwether no more, Cisco's moonshot is having little effect on the QQQs, which are barely green at the moment. 6 Comments [Tech, On the Move]
- Thursday, May 16, 7:08 AM S&P 500 (SPY) and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) futures are about flat ahead of barrage of economic data and Fed speakers as well as the continuing flow of earnings, today including Wal-Mart. Comment!
- Wednesday, May 15, 5:02 PM The QQQ's come to China with the launch of a Shanghai-listed ETF targeting the same Nasdaq 100 index. It's the first time Chinese investors have access to the U.S. market using an ETF. Comment!
- Wednesday, May 15, 1:23 AM IDC cuts its 2013 IT spending growth forecast to 4.9% from 5.5%, citing macro issues and weak PC demand; 2012 growth was 5.6%. Gartner, which includes a bigger array of products/services in its numbers, forecast 4.1% growth last month. IDC now sees U.S. software spending (MSFT, ORCL) growing 6%, down from a prior 7%. Storage hardware revenue (EMC, NTAP) is only expected to grow 2.4%, down from 2012's 6.1%, and carrier spending on networking gear (CSCO, JNPR, ALU, CIEN) is expected to grow just 1.1% vs. 5.8% in 2012. Recent earnings reports and warnings (I, II, III, IV) help explain the subdued outlook. 2 Comments [Tech]
- Tuesday, May 14, 8:03 AM More from Tepper: "We're going to get this hyper-drive market," unless the Fed starts tapering its purchases, he says (referencing 1999), adding the June meeting wouldn't be a bad time to get started. He pulls out this chart from a recent FRBNY report, showing stocks remain cheap - the equity premium to bonds is as high as it's been in the last 50 years. 16 Comments
- Tuesday, May 14, 7:52 AM Tepper stays bullish. Confounding gnomes who whispered the hedge fund honcho was turning cautious on stocks, David Tepper tells the CNBC crew the wave of liquidity that turned him bullish in the first place is getting even bigger. Fed tapering? So what, he says. The U.S. budget deficit over the next 6 months will only be $100B, while the Fed is scheduled to buy about $500B. That's $400B coming out of the bond market and going to investors who can buy more fixed-income, more real estate, more stocks. SPY erases losses and gets back to flat premarket. 11 Comments [Breaking News]
- Tuesday, May 14, 6:53 AM S&P 500 (SPY) futures are off 0.25% and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) futures -0.3%, with Europe moderately lower midday - the Stoxx 50 (FEZ) -0.5% - and Asia closing mixed to lower, the big action coming in Shanghai, -1.1%. Comment!
- Monday, May 13, 6:56 AM Stocks appear set to open the week with losses as S&P 500 (SPY) and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) futures slide -0.4%. Ex-Japan, Asia lost ground overnight and Europe's posting moderate losses, though Italy's IBEX 35 is off a more substantial 1.3%. 4 Comments
- Friday, May 10, 6:53 AM S&P 500 (SPY) and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) futures both +0.25%, behind moderate rallies throughout Asia and Europe. There's nothing moderate about Japan where the Nikkei jumped 2.9% as dollar/yen punched through resistance of ¥100 yesterday and kept going, now at ¥101.40. 2 Comments
- Thursday, May 9, 8:46 AM More on Jobless Claims: The 4-week moving average slides 6.25K to 336,750. Continuing claims fall 27K to 3.01M, the 4-week average off 24.5K to 3.03M. SPY -0.2% premarket, QQQ -0.4%. Comment! [U.S. Economy]
- Wednesday, May 8, 12:05 PM Stocks begin to move higher midday with tech (QQQ +0.5%) leading the way as Apple resumes its post-earnings, post-debt offering move upwards. Also notably green are the financials (XLF +0.9%), led by Bank of America and Citigroup, both up more than 2% and both at 52-week highs. The Dow (DIA +0.2%) underperforms as Disney slides 1.3% post-earnings. Comment!
- Tuesday, May 7, 12:02 PM Stocks remain mixed at noon, the DJIA (DIA +0.3%) and the Nasdaq 100 (QQQ -0.2%). A check of the S&P 500 heat map finds AIG, Gilead, Newmont, and Cisco as notable losers, with Yahoo, DirecTV, and EOG Resources the big winners. The 10-year Treasury yield continues higher, up 2 bps to 1.78%. Comment!
- Tuesday, May 7, 6:49 AM S&P 500 (SPY) futures +0.1% and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) futures +0.2% following a major rally in Japan overnight and a solid rise midday in Europe (FEZ), +0.7%. Comment!
