Stock market averages are modestly higher despite a round of weaker-than-expected economic data Thursday. While jobless claims rose much more than expected last week, Philli Fed, Housing Starts, and CPI were all well below expectations. I’m hearing more than one investment firm arguing that weak economic data is a positive for the stock market because [...]

Interesting trading day with some of the signs of a classic midweek reversal – up Monday, up Tuesday, and up Wednesday morning. Then, the NASDAQ, which led on the way up, leads on the way down. The initial rally was indeed surprising, as data on Industrial Production, PPI, and NY manufacturing were all weaker-than-expected. Crude [...]

Snoozefest. With no economic data or important earnings to guide things, market averages opened steady and have traded in a range. I won’t try to make it sound exciting, because it simply is not. Crude oil is up 46 cents to $96.07 and gold gained $5 to $1469. The Dow Jones Industrial Average erased morning [...]

Economic data showed a much bigger-than-expected drop on jobless claims ahead of key jobs data Friday morning. Commodities are mostly higher, with crude up nearly $2 [...]

Stock market averages fell on disappointing economic news Wednesday. ADP said the economy added just 119K private sector jobs in April. 155K was expected. April ISM and March Construction Spending also fell short of expectations. Merck (MRK) lost 2 percent and is the Dow’s biggest loser on earnings. Elsewhere, many overseas markets are closed for [...]

Stock market averages erased morning losses and are holding modest gains through midday Tuesday. Data released early motivated a bit of market weakness after Chicago PMI came in at 49 for April, from 52.4 and below expectations of 52. However, a surprise uptick in Consumer Confidence helped offset worries about manufacturing, after the Conference Board’s [...]

Stock market averages are holding solid gains, but there’s not much news flow and very light volume behind the move. Pending Home Sales were up 1.5 percent and that was 1.4 percent more than expected. Personal Incomes and Spending rose .2 percent and .2 percent in March, which was mostly in-line with expectations. European equity [...]
