Tuesday Recap

Markets fell Tuesday in spite of decent economic data. Most eyes were on Europe and the disappointment they brought. Germany, Europe's economic engine, had anemic growth in its GDP report. Volume increased, an ominous sign, as the markets fell today. Even worse was the action of leading stocks. Leaders that lost their 50 day MAs today, and under performed the markets handily today were LULU BIDU SINA IACI. FOSL lost 7%, and its 200 day MA in the process. CRM had a bearish outside day, also losing its 200 day MA in the process. And the stocks that demonstrated good relative strength today hailed mainly from defensive sectors, like ABV ROST DLTR DG. DELL was lower after hours on earnings, citing a lack of clarity going forward. Tomorrow we have earnings from ANF DE before the bell and LTD SINA after the close.
