The Morning Look
Stock Market Overview:
Futures are relatively quiet ahead of Thursday’s open as investors add to Tuesday and Wednesday’s strong rally.
Gary’s Thoughts: We repeat from last night: JP Morgan…earnings down 14%, revs down 2%…remember what we told you about everyone already knowing and reporting earnings will be bad. We must also add Steve Wynn just bought more stock…73,000 shares. This after we reported to you his massive buying in January and February. A CEO averaging up is normally a good sign. Rest of market has now edged above resistance we outlined for you. Let’s hope it holds as we continue into earning’s season. WFC and JPM are down a smidge this morning on their numbers.
