x 0 x 0 Alert Admin	Dow down 22 points and Nasdaq down 6 points now .... ----------------- MARKET SNAPSHOT U.S. stocks drop on profit-taking, housing Drop in existing home sales offset good news from eBay By Nick Godt, MarketWatch Last Update: 10:51 AM ET Jan 25, 2007 NEW YORK (MarketWatch) - U.S. stocks were lower on Thursday, as investors took profit from the previous session's strong gains and as bad news from housing offset upbeat results from eBay Inc. and Nokia Corp. "We're seeing a bit of selling after the runnup we saw yesterday," said Owen Fitzpatrick, head of the U.S. equity group at Deutsche Bank. "But the overall earnings trend remains supportive of more money coming into this market." News of a sharp drop in existing home sales in December also added to the selling pressure. The market has been betting that a stabilizing housing market would lead the economy to a soft landing this year. But the data's impact on stocks was muted, Fitzpatrick said, "because this week, we've got to get into the meat of earnings and that's what's driving the market right now." The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 31 points at 12,590, with 21 of its 30 components in negative territory. The S&P 500 index was down 4.9 points at 1,435. Meanwhile, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite dropped 9 points to 2,457. The Dow was weighed down by the likes of American International Group Inc., Boeing Co. and Exxon Mobil Corp.. Among other blue-chips, AT&T rose 0.7% after its earnings topped analysts forecasts. Techs received an early boost Thursday after the latest salvo of earnings confirmed a positive trend in the sector. Shares of eBay Inc. rallied 11.3% after the online auctioneer posted a stronger-than-forecast 29% rise in quarterly sales, alongside earnings that beat a prior internal forecast. Nokia Inc. was up almost 6%. The world's largest handset maker posted a better-than-forecast 19% profit rise on 13% revenue growth. Microsoft Corp. rose 0.2% ahead of its earnings, expected after the close of trading. ----------------

x 0 x 0 Alert Admin	Interesting nite for US market with economic data & heavy-weight earnings to be released! 2130hrs: Jobless claims 2300 hrs: Existing home sales 2300 hrs: Help wanted index ------------------ MARKET SNAPSHOT U.S. stocks set to trade mixed at opening Good news from the technology sector to lend support once more By Leslie Wines, MarketWatch Last Update: 9:00 AM ET Jan 25, 2007 NEW YORK (MarketWatch) - U.S. stocks are headed for a mixed opening Thursday, with the technology sector likely to outperform other groups, following unexpectedly strong results from eBay and Nokia. The futures contract for the Dow Jones Industrial Average last was down 6 points at 12,655. Futures contracts for the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100 were down 1 point at 1,445.20 and up 3.2 points at 1,818.5 respectively. On Wednesday stocks closed with broad gains, allowing the Dow Jones industrials to achieve a new record close and the S&P 500 to finish at its best level in more than 6 years. The major averages all benefited from positive developments from Yahoo Inc. and Sun Microsystems Inc.. The rally should spill over into Thursday's opening, as investors wait for more fourth-quarter earnings reports. "When push comes to shove, January is always about earnings," said Marc Pado, chief U.S. market strategist at Cantor Fitzgerald. "So far it has been more good news than bad." In premarket electronic trade, shares of eBay Inc. rose 12.2% to $33.67. The online auctioneer posted a stronger-than-forecast 29% rise in quarterly sales, alongside earnings that beat a prior internal forecast. Nokia Inc. was almost 6% higher at $21.40 before the opening. The world's largest handset maker posted a better-than-forecast 19% profit rise on 13% revenue growth. Qualcomm Inc. gained 1.7% to $39.26 in premarket activity. The company posted a 5% improvement in profit and reiterated its outlook for 2007. Its earnings beat expectations. Shares of Ford Motor Co. were volatile, last trading up 6 cents at $8.26, after earlier falling 1.2% to $8.10. The embattled auto maker said its loss widened to $5.8 billion, or $3.05 a share, from $74 million, of 4 cents a share, a year earlier. Excluding non-recurring item, the company would have lost $2.1 billion, or $1.10 a share, wider than the average analyst loss estimate compiled by Thomson First Call of $1.01 a share. Bristol-Myers Squibb rose 1 cent to $27 in premarket trade. The pharmaceutical company posed a quarterly net loss, pressured by special costs. However, the company's earnings per share excluding special items exceeded analyst expectations. AT&T rose 2.4% to $27.50 before the start of trade. The telecom posted a 17% rise in fourth-quarter earnings, bolstered by strength in its wireless business, amid a 23% increase in revenue. Microsoft Corp. gained 11 cents to $31.20 in early trade. The company will release its earnings report after the close of trade. The Labor Department said the number of initial jobless claims in the latest week rose by 36,000 to 325,000, suggesting some slack in the labor market as 2007 got underway. Economists were expecting 310,000 new claims. Existing home sales for December are due at 10 a.m. The MarketWatch median forecast, based on a poll of economists, is for 6.24 million sales, which would be down from 6.28 million in November. ----------------- The futures contract for the Dow Jones Industrial Average last was down 6 points at 12,655.

x 0 x 0 Alert Admin	Show time in SGX today .... Shiok! --------------- MARKET SNAPSHOT U.S. stocks rise to record highs as TECHS RALLY Yahoo, Sun Microsystems lead tech charge; AT&T lifts the Dow By Nick Godt, MarketWatch Last Update: 4:27 PM ET Jan 24, 2007 NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- U.S. stocks rallied Wednesday, lifting the Dow Jones Industrial Average to a new record and its best day of the year as the technology sector charged higher on the back of positive news from Yahoo Inc. and Sun Microsystems Inc. "A number of positive earnings are contributing to the feeling that this season is going to be positive for the tech sector," said Robert Pavlik, chief investment officer at Oaktree Asset Management. "That's encouraging people to put money to work." The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained nearly 88 points, or 0.7%, to close at 12,621, a new record closing high, with 26 of its components rising. The blue-chip average also hit an all-time high of 12,619 just minutes before the close. Shares of AT&T Inc. led the advance on the Dow, rising over 4% after the company's wireless unit Cingular reported better-than-expected earnings. McDonald's Corp. weighed the most, falling 1.5% after its posted in-line earnings. The S&P 500 gained 12 points to 1,440, a more than six-year high for the broad index. But most of the Wednesday action was seen in the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite, which rallied nearly 35 points, or 1.4%, to 2,466. The tech sector was boosted after Yahoo rolled out new search ad technology, dubbed Panama, and said it expects to improve revenue per page view over the course of the year. The stock rallied over 7%, even after the Internet search group reported a 61% profit decline, and after Goldman Sachs downgraded the shares due to concerns over valuation. Sun Microsystems shares climbed nearly 9% after Kohlberg Kravis Roberts said it will invest $700 million into the group, and after the company said it swung to a better-than-expected quarterly profit. "Last week, we saw some big disappointments from the tech sector, which had had a substantial move since the beginning of the year," said Oaktree's Pavlik. "So there was some concern that the market had gotten ahead of itself. "But now, the feeling is more positive about technology, which is one of a few sectors expected to return 20% earnings growth this year," he said. Not all was rosy in tech on Wednesday, however, as Advanced Micro Devices shares slumped over 8% after the chipmaker said it swung to a loss in the fourth-quarter and provided a disappointing outlook. In addition, software giant SAP AG dropped over 7% after providing a disappointing margin outlook. Tech shares, which had led the market's advance since the start of the year, took a beating last week after disappointing earnings outlooks from tech leaders Apple Inc., Intel Corp. and IBM. According to Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Avalon Partners, the market also needed to consolidate its strong gains of the past six months and determine whether the outlook for earnings justify further gains in stock prices. "The market needed to take a breather and assess earnings guidance and economic conditions," Cardillo said. Worries about a slowdown of the U.S. economy have receded amid a raft of stronger than expected data in recent weeks. Markets will still pay attention to key reports on housing and orders for durable goods over the next two days. --------------- "A number of positive earnings are contributing to the feeling that this season is going to be positive for the tech sector," said Robert Pavlik, chief investment officer at Oaktree Asset Management.
