- With the rise in the Fed Funds Rate you would expect the banks to be up. Interest rates actually dropped this morning and took the banks with them. JP Morgan actually dropped below 108 and bounced up some from there.
- Boeing spiked up this morning shortly after the market opened to 367 and then fell sharply to 359 where it bounced up. I would expect a bigger bounce for the day on Friday, but don't believe I will be trading it.
- FANG participated to the upside today with Amazon, Netflix and Nvidia hitting new highs today. Alphabet opened up, dipped to where it opened and drove higher until 1:30pm when it gave back 10 points to go up another 5. I traded the movement from 9:40am to 10:20am for a nice gain.
- I heard this morning that Amazon Prime membership might have peaked and is feeling pressure from Walmart. Amazon is so much more that just shopping and apparently the market didn't believe that as Amazon hit a new high and Walmart faltered with the rest of retail.
- A retail name that did not falter much was Best Buy. Best Buy trades like a tech on some days and like a retail on others, but more like a tech.
- Macy's, L Brands, Home Depot, Walmart and almost everything else retail related was down today after there was a very positive number regarding retail price index this morning at 8:30am. Verizon hit a nice bottom around 47.30 where it went up from there. Home Depot hit a bottom around the same time at 198.25. I would expect Home Depot to have it's regular Friday morning run tomorrow and hit 202 by the end of the day.
- Towards the end of the day there was news that the Department of Justice will not challenge the court ruling allowing AT&T to acquire Time Warner. Disney, Comcast and Netflix were up nicely. According to a chart maker, they see Netflix will hit 415 soon.
