earnings small stocks
The stocks that are benefiting most from better earnings are the small and mid-cap ones.
build case earnings economic half second
You can build a case for an economic recovery, and you can build a case for earnings being much better in the second half of the year.
earnings few grind maybe mostly next period weeks
I would say in the next few weeks we can kind of grind in place, maybe a little to the upside. Maybe we'll get through the pre-announcement period without too much trouble, and then we'll get into third-quarter earnings in October, and they should be mostly in line.
card earnings economic higher hit numbers wild
If we can hit these economic numbers and the earnings are good, and we can chug a little higher this week, that would be helpful. The wild card is still oil.
close defensive dependent earnings economic focus names numbers reactions recovery seeing trading volatile
With earnings winding down and not as much to focus on, you're getting very volatile reactions to economic numbers that are actually pretty close to estimates. You're also seeing some of the defensive names that are dependent on an economic recovery trading lower.
bad earnings
Earnings have come in not as bad as the expectations.
drifting earnings encouraged few next oil positive prices seem
We're drifting, and we're probably going to keep drifting for the next few weeks. But that's OK, there are positive developments out there. Oil prices seem to be under control, and I'm more encouraged about the second-quarter earnings than I have been in a while.
bought came cell components division dropped earnings electronic equipment original parts potential strong wireless
They make electronic components for the original equipment manufacturers. In February, they bought the Motorola ( MOT ) division that makes parts for wireless cell phones. Well, it came down a little bit..made a new high, dropped a little bit, and is now on the way back up. They have the potential strong earnings growth.
earnings fallen good next stocks wave
There's a lot of earnings for next week, but I don't see what's going to give us a lift. If the earnings have been good so far, and stocks have fallen anyway, what could the next wave of earnings do for us, even if they are positive?
earnings growth people perceive
This is where the earnings growth is. This is where people perceive the opportunities are to make money.
almost classic earnings expecting market meet news seeing sell though
This is the classic 'buy the rumor, sell the news' reaction. The market is expecting the second-quarter earnings are going to meet or beat, so even though Yahoo! almost tripled its earnings, you're seeing some selling.
base best build closer earnings fits good hope hopefully later market perhaps provide pull second starts
I think the best we could hope for now is the market kind of fits in and starts to try to build a good base here, go up a little, pull back. And then hopefully as we get closer to the end of the second quarter, the earnings prospects, if they are better, should provide us a base to perhaps do a little better later in the year.
allow beyond bounce bust earnings push rest strength
I think we'll bounce in this same range. I don't think the rest of the earnings will allow us to bust out of this range... I don't see where we would get the strength to push us beyond those highs.
center companies earnings good greenspan help hope looking market people reporting speaks tomorrow
Hewlett-Packard had good earnings so that should help the techs tomorrow. The other companies reporting tomorrow aren't usually market movers. Greenspan also speaks to Congress, which people will be looking at, but I don't think he'll say anything too surprising. So the hope is that HP earnings will take center stage.
