Federal officials are checking smoke that was coming from a boeing 787 jet on the ground in boston. And the mighty mississippippi is flowing again with barges. Larry levin of trading advantage is among the many traders awaiting earnings coming from alcoa after the close. Good morning to you, and what is your expectation .
