WorkFE's Account Talk

Futures flat this morning but green none the less.

Revised GDP # released before the opening bell could move us somewhat either way.
Case-Shiller housing index at 9 a.m. and Report on Consumer Confidence comes out after the bell.
Later in the day minutes from the Federal Reserve's latest meeting.

Overseas markets slipped, today and tomorrow could be setting up for friday or monday.

GL today everybody.
 
The S&P tipped to green the VIX continuing it's downward trend. That light you see off in the distance could be a street light but could also be a train coming right at you. Step aside I don't want anyone getting hurt.:)
 
Depends on which way the train is going! if its going uptrack i am standing right in its way.
 
I should know better than to open my cake hole prior to 4pm. Advanced appology to everybody.
 
Futures are up some what today. If your still confused remember One of the drawbacks of low volume is larger volatility and a weak dollar can make commodities look atractive from an investment (short term) stand point. Of course the volatility is not one directional. You will get bruised up.:worried:

Personal income and spending, jobless claims, consumer sentiment and new home sales are all due out today and overseas markets were mostly green. Today could be alot of fun or NOT. Will probably end alot like yesterday, maybe on the green side to offset yesterday. All this wishy washy bullcrap is a set up for monday. Retail from this weekend will drive us one way or another on Monday.

GL today everybody.

Been pretty volatile so far! Yikes!!! :nuts:
 
Still have 15 minutes to make a move. My gut tells me to tough it out today, that there may be a treat between now and monday. Besides some soldiers invited me to eat at one of the dining facilities that is serving Turkey at lunch.
Way more important than some stupid market.:D
 
Okay, I have officially had enough Turkey. Atleast until X-mas.
For now futures are green. We shall see.
 
We will probably give most of this back by the end of the day but if we finish like yesterday we are headed in the right direction.
 
This thing is looking alot like monday. Of course we ended it on the green side then I would not be surprised if we ended today slightly on the red side. But then again metal prices and a continuing weak dollar, could help move the markets forward.

It looks as though the job loss picture is stabilizing and should come to a hault in the Feb-Mar timeframe. I would hope that some type of growth, no matter how small, should begin middle of 2010.

Every time I read Ford news it looks brighter, especially overseas. They are rolling. One of my smarter moves back in Feb of this year.

GL today everybody with the second half of our trading day.
 
Today's finish was a pleasant surprise. I believe if the VIX goes sub 21 tomorrow I may pull 5% each out of the CS&I and move it to the G.
Futures are up slightly this evening.
 
Futures are up this morning. Here are a few things that will effect the market today.

Bank of America to pay back the 45 Billion to the Gov.

GE and Comcast signed an agreement to form a joint entertainment company.

Retailers will release their sales figures for November in the morning that will include the critical Black Friday period.

The dollar fell against the euro and pound, but was up against the yen.

Ben Bernanke's second term confirmation hearing at 10.

GL Today.

All of this should have a positive affect on the market. However sometimes the market does just the opposite of what is expected.
