Earnings Fail To Excite Market! SPX, Nasdaq, AAPL, TXN, BLK, BTU, YHOO SNDK, CREE, ISRG

Although both AAPL and TXN reported solid earnings yesterday, they were not enough to draw more buyers in, just yet.  The market took a breather as the dollar managed a bounce, which resulted in weakness in the commodity sectors.  AAPL closed below the $200 level, up just +4.69% from yesterday’s close.  TXN barely kept in [...]

Review 12/27/07: SPX, Nasdaq, AAPL, MELI, AMZN, CREE

Review 9/4/07: SPX, Nasdaq, EXC, YHOO, CREE, LEAP, GLDN

After a long weekend’s rest, the bulls continue to charge! The Dow added +91.12 points, while SPX added +15.43. But, the real buying was in the techs! Nasdaq gained another +33.88 points on top of Friday’s +31-point gain! Most sectors were green with semiconductors (SOX), biotechs (BTK), and the Internets (INX2) capturing solid gains. Natural [...]
