Monday Thoughts

Markets sold off to start a new week Monday. They started lower after the debt ceiling woes lingering from last Friday, made a mid day move upward, then sold off into the close. The Nazz made it back to UNCH at one point only to slide into the close. Nazz volume was softer, lessening the blow, but S&P 500 volume expanded, raising concerns. Caution is certainly the name of the game here. However stocks that showed some relative strength amidst the wreckage were MSFT ADS CHRW UNP AAPL ROP CAT CPX FDS. Chemicals and transports outperformed with gold and silver stocks slid. Gap ups still holding up, and therefore grant inculsion on your watchlist are GR HOG PM AAPL BBG ACN RRC IBM. New highs on both the Nazz and S&P 500 were strong, but only slightly so. After hours BRCM was up 8% on earnings. We flagged it reclaiming its 50 day MA recently and looking like its changed its trend to a more positive tone. BIDU was up 10%, and NFLX was off 10%. Tomorrow earnings come from AME HSY NOV OXY SIAL UA UPS WDR WAT WPI before the open and AMZN CHRW ERTS GILD ILMN JNPR LVS NBR NSC QCOR TPX after the close. MMM TROW also report.
