Today. Tech stocks continue to lag. Lets get to bob for more on todays Market Action. Bob. Hello, melissa. Were near the highs for the day but have not been able to get into positive territory. Sec cyclicals tend to lead banks are having a pretty good week strong trading revenues. Jpmorgan, same thing there important thing here is banks tend to drop in the week of their first earnings report. Thats when jpmorgan reports this week not so bank of america strong you saw there kbe, theres a bank index almost up 5 for the week banks have been terrible under performers megacap, theyre down this week. Some of them are down. Amazon is down about 6 for the week apple is flattish. Most of the others are down 2, 3, 4 . How about netflix, which is a faang name out there its been all over the place 500 to 570 back down to 500 the important thing here Social Security moved in a 5 range today. Lot of volume. Three times normal volume. Thats typical for netflix well get the earnings soon here finally
Johnson johnson better than expected, it doesnt matter. Taiwan semi last night fantastic, doesnt matter. Apple price bump doesnt matter. When you get like that that says, let the sellers get their job done, there is some agenda here, theyre obviously not caring about news, not reacting to better retail sales or jobless claims down again. Every time that happens theres usually a great trend up someone is a seller. There is big money that wants out right now, i think a lot of people are confused about whats going on in nasdaq, amazon down 10 since the week began consequently there is no bid underneath no matter what the companies say. That will change probably midday i think its an okay day all right well see, jim obviously we talk about the market looking forward through some of the news flow and, you know, you take some of the Bank Commentary about second half growth versus first half,its not nearly as constructive and we will see whether gorman backs up what citi and wells and jpmorga
