Good morning folks,
We had a nice bounce yesterday and today we have the GDP report that could be a market moving report if it comes in either too hot or not hot enough.Once again we had a mixed bag in earnings GOOG and BABA missed V AMZN and BIIB beat.
As I said yesterday the IBB has been the pillar of strength and in early trading it looked as though it was starting to crack as it tested the 20 day moving average only to reverse on the day and close in the green and the IWM also had a nice reversal day.
Gold and miners continued to drop and oil was basically flat.
GDP is out and GOLD had a little bounce off the number
Stocks on my RadarSCMP pr testing the 16 dolla holla, MITK earnings beat but it has already run into earnings see if it holds, IMGN earnings beat possible base breakout gap to fill on the daily, HABT and PLAY could be sympathy plays with SHAK IPO, CRMD possible continuation, GENE possible red to green but it can be a pop and flopper so be careful, NEO looking for it to take out 4 with conviction, ICPT on fyaa after FDA designation gapper, GURE pr I would not chase it the pr is mediocre, CTIC article on the Street active premarket
