Stock Futures Point Higher on Jobs Data. Stocks to Watch: JVA, RVSN, FRO, STM, AMZN, NFLX, AMD

March 15, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Stock FuturesInvestors will finally get a deluge of data to give them direction in which to take the broader marker. Jobless claims and a manufacturing activity index are on tap this morning. If the bulls carry the day, this will be the seventh consecutive day of gains on the Dow. Currently Dow futures are up 27 points to 13,157. Nasdaq 100 futures are up 8.25 to 2,711. The S&P 500 futures are rounding out the pre-market gains, up 3.25 to 1,392.

The labor market continues to show signs of strengthening. Weekly jobless claims dropped 14k to 351k. This matches a four year low. Last week’s numbers were revised upwards to 365k, accounting for the sizable drop in the number. Still a ways to go, but at the very least the trajectory will make the election cycle very interesting.

Traders are beginning to wonder how much steam the market has left. Most of the major indexes have notched multi-year highs, with no discernible pull-backs. The dollar has started to strengthen again on the back of recent Fed comments about the prospect of QE3 in the near-term. The statement earlier this week pretty much killed expectations that it was around the corner. [Read more...]

Stock Futures Higher as Wall Street Opens for 2012

January 3, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Wall Street is looking to enter the new year in full rally mode as the futures are climbing this morning. The Dow futures are up just over 1% 12,386. Nasdaq 100 futures are adding 38 points in pre-market trading. The S&P 500 futures are also higher, adding nearly 20 points to 1,272.20.

The US markets are riding the wave of rallies across the Globe after shares in Hong Kong got the rally started, jumping 2.4% overnight. The Asian markets were buoyed by stronger than expected manufacturing activity.

The European markets mostly followed suit with their Asian counterparts. The bank heavy Stoxx 600 Europe is currently up nearly half a percent. The German DAX is up .68% in midday trading. European trading still has the tint of nervousness after Spain announced over the weekend that they had missed their deficit goals. Doing so caused them to start implementing tough austerity measures which is sure to weaken the recently elected government’s standing domestically.

Commodity prices continued their jump into the new year. Gold prices are shrugging off a poor December showing, adding $30 an ounce to their futures price. Oil prices followed suit, adding over $2 a barrel to gain a solid foothold on the $100+ mark.

The economic data calendar is spread out across the market day today. This morning investors are waiting for the manufacturing PMI. Consensus expectations are for a slight rise from the November number of 52.7. Later in the day the Federal Reserve will release their FOMC minutes from its December 13 monetary-policy meeting. Investors will get a look behind the curtain to see if members are leaning towards or away from another round of monetary easing.

Tonight all eyes will turn to American politics as the Iowa caucuses are set to begin. Mitt Romney has maintained a tie with Ron Paul but observers are expecting him to pull out the win. If he does the race for the nomination would be pretty much over due to his lead in NH. Surprises can happen on these type of state-wide votes so it will be interesting to see how well Ron Paul and the surging Rick Santorum do.
