couple cut excuse key longer near next profit profits rate taking term today words yesterday
Profit taking will be key words today (Thursday) and over the next couple of weeks. The Fed's rate cut yesterday bodes well for the longer term but near term it is an excuse to take profits. Cisco's story is another excuse to take profits in technology.

Retail sales numbers were stronger than expected, and that shows that consumer are still spending, and I think that is weighing on the market today and it should.

below bullish concerned drop economy numbers percent report saw slowing support today
The productivity numbers today (Thursday) and tomorrow's (Friday's) report do nothing to support a bullish market. I would be concerned if we saw the unemployment drop below 4 percent because that would show the economy is not slowing down.

You do have some impetus today but there's little conviction and little volume. I didn't see any specific reason behind the rally - people may be just trying to outguess the outcome (of the Fed meeting).

brings dominate goes highs information market oil potential producer reaction spike stops today until worry
That's going to dominate the market today until we get more information. A potential story like this from an OPEC producer brings up the worry that oil can spike to new highs very easily. We see the reaction in equities when oil goes higher. It stops equities in their tracks.
