(Jobs) have been one of the bright sports recently. But it's hard for me to envision the market getting any kind of legs. |
A lot of people are not sure what to do and that uncertainty is playing itself out in the marketplace. |
Any company out there that has some accounting concerns, either real or imagined, is getting hit today, ... There's fear out there that maybe Enron was just the tip of the iceberg. |

At some point, high oil prices have to matter. When Joe Six Pack has to start paying $50 to fill up his tank, you have to think they will stop buying Frappuccinos and bottled water. |
Basically we're holding our breath and seeing what happens on the Fourth. |
Early next week you've got a trade deficit number and retail sales, and those reports could be volatile. |
Earnings are a mixed bag, but it seem like tech stocks are starting to turn the corner. |
Earnings look OK and it looks like there's some pretty good bargains, but where's the demand going to come from? |
Earnings seem to be flat to a penny better, and everyone was prepared for the worst. There don't seem to be a lot of sellers in the market, and it seems like the tide might be starting to turn. The market is fairly valued...it gives the opportunity for the economy and earnings to move higher here. |
Every day that goes by (the market's lows of April and March) seem more and more like the true bottom. |
Every time the market pulls back, people come back into the market. I think the real driver is there's no return holding cash. |
Everybody's holding their breath wondering what the next event is going to be. I don't think anybody expects a rally any time soon. |
Everyone thinks stocks are okay, the economy is okay, but markets have been lower since the beginning of the year. People are waiting for a reason to make a move. They want to act on an event, like the earnings that are coming out or the upcoming Federal Reserve meeting. |
Everyone wants to see a sign that will urge people back into the markets. Right now, there is no confidence; there's no reason to do anything. |
