- Thursday, April 25, 3:59 PM Not really news, but good enough to knock stocks (DIA, SPY, QQQ) well of their highs in the last hour is the Bundesbank - in a filing to Germany's high court - signaling its displeasure with the ECB's Outright Monetary Transactions. OMT hasn't been used yet, but was put in place by the central bank last year to - if necessary - buy the debt of peripheral countries. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Thursday, April 25, 3:02 PM Stocks ease off gains an hour before the bell, the Dow (DIA +0.3%) boosted by financials and tech, but dragged by 3M and Exxon after their earnings disappointed. The S&P (SPY +0.5%) and the Nasdaq (QQQ +0.5%) fare better. 2 Comments
- Thursday, April 25, 8:35 AM S&P 500 (SPY) futures extend gains, +0.5% after jobless claims fall to their lowest level in 6 weeks. Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) +0.7%. The 4-week moving average fell 4.5K to 357.5K. Comment!
- Wednesday, April 24, 10:10 AM Turning 10 this week, the Guggenheim S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP) has outperformed the SPY by 5,900 basis points since its launch. The RSP was one of the pioneers of equal-weighting - created in the aftermath of the 2000 bust to give investors exposure to stocks without so high a focus on large caps (the so-called "Cisco effect"). It's time for a renaming to the "Apple effect" as QQQE - the Nasdaq 100 Equal Weighted ETF - has outperformed the QQQ by 850 bps YTD. 3 Comments
- Wednesday, April 24, 6:54 AM S&P 500 (SPY) futures +0.15% following yesterday's big rally here and especially across the pond. Europe tacks on more gains, the Stoxx 50 +0.4% as momentum continues to build for an ECB rate cut next week. Apple is lower by 0.75%, erasing gains in the 5% area after the earnings and its plan to take on debt to return cash to shareholders. Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) futures +0.2%. 5 Comments
- Friday, April 19, 9:52 AM Most stocks are higher in early trade, but big moves in big names are dragging key indexes. IBM -6.4%, GE -3.9%, McDonald's -2.2% are hurting the Dow (DIA -0.3%) following earnings. H-P -5.5% as Blackstone looked under the hood of the PC business and said "no thank you." Down 1.3%, Apple is capping the Nasdaq 100 (QQQ +0.4%). Comment!
- Friday, April 19, 7:06 AM S&P 500 (SPY) futures +0.7% and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) +0.6% following well-received earnings reports from Google and Microsoft, but not-so-hot numbers from IBM. Sizable rallies in Asia and Europe help as well. Shanghai +2.2%, Stoxx 50 +1.2%. 1 Comment
- Thursday, April 18, 1:08 PM Stocks have bounced off their worst levels, but remain lower in afternoon trade. Tech (QQQ -1%) shows particular weakness, with Apple dug in below $400 and Google off 1.8%. Verizon, however, is an area of tech sector strength, +3.7% following earnings. S&P 500 down just 0.3%. 1 Comment
- Thursday, April 18, 6:57 AM S&P 500 (SPY) +0.35%, Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) +0.4% following yesterday's ugly session, with the two downside leaders - Apple and BofA - up marginally in the premarket. Helping is a moderate rally in Europe, which has really struggled of late - Germany's DAX's bad string has returned it to flat for the year. 2 Comments
- Wednesday, April 17, 7:22 AM Futures post sizable losses - the S&P 500 (SPY) -0.7% and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) -0.8% - as Europe fails to participate in a fairly broad global rally, the Stoxx 50 (FEZ) off 1.3%. Also not helping are Bank of America and Yahoo down more than 2% following earnings. 6 Comments
- Tuesday, April 16, 7:05 AM S&P 500 (SPY) futures show at least an early bounce from yesterday's sorry action, +0.5%. Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) +0.6%. 1 Comment
- Monday, April 15, 10:48 PM Precious metals continue lower in volatile trade this evening, gold (GLD) off another 1.3% to $1,343/oz., and silver (SLV) tacking on another 3.3% in losses to $22.57. WTI crude oil slides 2.4% to $86.60/barrel. Stock index futures, however, show signs of a rebound, the S&P 500 (SPY) +0.3% and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) +0.5%. 12 Comments
- Monday, April 15, 6:57 AM S&P 500 (SPY) futures -0.5%, Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) -0.4% as the liquidation in precious metals continues. Other sensitive commodities: WTI crude (USO) -2.5% to $88.76, and copper (JJC) -3.4% to $3.23. 6 Comments [On the Move]
- Friday, April 12, 8:45 AM The 10-year Treasury yield falls 5 basis points on the session to 1.74% following the weak retail sales print. TLT +1.1% premarket, with the last month's big rally in bond prices bringing it back to flat YTD. S&P 500 (SPY) futures dip to a session-low, -0.5%. The QQQs off 0.5% premarket. 1 Comment [U.S. Economy]
- Thursday, April 11, 7:03 PM The pace at which new technologies are disrupting companies makes it dangerous to be a value investor, argues VC Ashvin Bachireddy. As mobile devices, cloud software, e-commerce, and much else upends old business models, investing in a BlackBerry or an OfficeMax/Office Depot due to a low P/E can prove painful. "While there may still be opportunities for value investing, you need to be cautious of businesses that appear to be on a slow decline." His remarks seem prescient in light of what happened today to several PC-related names with low multiples. 14 Comments [Tech, Consumer, Quick Ideas]
- Monday, April 8, 2:17 PM Moderate early losses are erased and stocks turn higher in afternoon trade, SPY +0.35%, QQQ +0.3%. Consumer goods stocks lead the way, the XLP +0.8%, the XLY +0.7%. 5 Comments
