Good morning Folks
Earnings season is picking up and from what I have seen so far earnings and guidance have been a mixed bag so far.
It is looking more and more likely things are not going to end well in Greece. I have seen several headlines and tweets suggesting that a default is a real possibility if that happens I would imagine the initial reaction would be negative.
