Friends We had more great earnings reports and continued mixed reactions to them yesterday after the close and into today’s trading, but the overall market had an upward bias to it despite a disappointing GDP number. It appears that market participants are still comfortable that the Fed will...
Friends Wow, there’s a lot to cover so here we go. First of all we got some terrific earnings reports after the close yesterday from Apple, Google, Microsoft, AMD and more. These big tech/growth companies are absolutely crushing it earnings and revenue wise, but as we have seen...
Friends Despite more good earnings reports, stocks sold off today in a kind of “sell the news” reaction. Sure, there are concerns about the Covid-19 resurgence and there is a Fed meeting going on today and tomorrow, but investors will be focused after the closing bell on earnings...
Friends What worries? Monday’s “pullback” seems to be a distant memory just 2 trading sessions later. Sure, some pretty darn good earnings reports from corporate America have been helpful (but no real surprise), but when bond yields stopped plunging and recovered some, the stock market responded positively.

Friends It was another day of trading with mixed results. Today the Dow was able to spend most of the day in positive territory, but the tech heavy Nasdaq was under selling pressure the entire trading session. Breadth was decidedly negative indicating once again the leadership is narrowing...
Friends Though Fed Chair Powell reiterated the Fed’s dovish stance testifying before the House Committee on Financial Services, stocks drifted somewhat aimlessly during today’s trading session. Only the big tech names such as Apple, Microsoft and Google have been pushing to new highs in recent days. This type...
Friends We had a trio of very good earnings reports this morning, but only one winner in terms of stock price. Both JP Morgan Chase and Goldman Sachs had excellent earnings reports but their shares moved lower as the good news appears to have been priced in already....
