Market updates

The market finally caved in last Friday after a dismal outlook by GE. The major index continued to bounce off their resistance levels.

Out of my 4 credit spreads plays, 3 are out of the money and looking positive. The 4th credit spread was playing BBBY into earnings deep-in-the-money. BBBY guidance was bad. However, the market somehow push BBBY upwards even last Friday. My BBBY play is now negative. I shall see what happens next before making a decision on BBBY.

This week we will see a number of financial stocks releasing their earnings results. These stocks include WM, JPM, WFC, MER and SLM. The outcome could greatly impact on the market this week. I am still bearish in the sector.
