PortfolioCrafter - Market Commentary 1/31/07

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

PortfolioCrafterStocks leaped with the Dow Jones Industrial Average posting its best day of the year after the Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged and indicated that inflation remains under control, easing concerns the central bank might have to raise interest rates. Interpretation that inflation is moderating, while there’s a pick up in the economy, should all be good for equities.

Today, the Dow Jones Industrial average closed up 98.38 or 0.79% to 12,621.69, the broader S&P 500 closed up 9.42 or 0.66% to 1,438.24, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq composite closed up 15.29 or 0.62% to 2,463.93.

Market breadth was positive. On the New York Stock Exchange, winners beat losers by 11 to 5 on volume of 1.721 billion shares. On the Nasdaq, advancers topped decliners by 16 to 13 on volume of 2.258 billion shares.

Policy-makers opted to hold a key short-term interest rate steady at 5.25%, for the fifth meeting in a row. In the closely watched statement, they acknowledged the recent signs of strength in the economy and said that growth should expand at a moderate pace over the next few quarters. On inflation, they said core pricing pressure had improved but that wage inflation remained an issue. The statement represents a substantial upgrade to the Fed’s growth outlook, suggesting that despite the housing slow down, things are moving along. Additionally, the statement didn’t add to bets that the Fed is likely to raise rates imminently, something investors have been concerned about recently.

The GDP grew at a 3.5% annual rate in the fourth quarter, up from a 2% gain in the third quarter and a faster pace than the 3% forecast by economists. This is a surprisingly strong showing given the ongoing slump in the housing market. A separate report, the Chicago PMI, showed a bigger than expected decline in manufacturing growth in the Midwest region in January.

Shares of Altria closed down $0.15 to $87.39, after reporting higher fourth-quarter profit. Additionally, the company said it would spin off its majority stake in Kraft foods. Its profit was $2.96 billion, compared with $2.29 billion, a year earlier. Its 89% stake in Kraft Foods will be distributed March 30 to shareholders on record as of March 16.

Stock of SanDisk closed down $2.65 or 6% to $40.18, after saying that it swung to a quarterly loss from a profit a year ago. The maker of flash memory chips for cell phones and digital cameras have been declining swiftly and that the price outlook for 2007 is unclear.

Delta Air Lines rejected a hostile takeover bid from US Airways Group. Shares of US Airways closed up $2.88 to $55.98. US Air announced that the creditors’ committee, whose approval Delta needs to emerge from bankruptcy, would not give its support to the nearly $10 billion cash-and-stock offer.

U.S. light crude oil for March delivery rose $1.17 to $58.05 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

PortfolioCrafter - Market Commentary 1/30/07

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

PortfolioCrafterStocks closed higher, benefiting from rallying oil prices and energy shares that helped offset the caution ahead of a Federal Reserve interest rate decision. The market held up pretty well considering the big stocks that are down after reporting a now familiar pattern of okay earnings and lackluster guidance. Its likely that we will stay around current levels until we can get a sense of where the economy’s headed and what the Fed will do.

Today, the Dow Jones Industrial average closed up 32.53 or 0.26% to 12,523.31, while the broader S&P 500 closed up 8.20 or 0.58% to 1,428.82, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq composite closed up 7.55 or 0.31% to 2,448.64.

Market breadth was positive. On the New York Stock Exchange, winners topped losers by 23 to 9 on volume of 1.53 billion shares. On the Nasdaq, advancers beat decliners 18 to 11 on volume of 1.82 billion shares.

In the Fed meeting tomorrow, policymakers are expected to hold the key short-term interest rate steady. However, investors will be attuned to what the bankers have to say in the accompanying statement about the economy and the future direction of interest rates. Last fall, stocks rallied partly on bets that the Federal Reserve would start cutting rates as soon as the first quarter of this year. But such bets have disappeared in response to recent reports that have suggested a stronger finish to the fourth quarter and start to the first than had been expected. Investors have been coming to terms with the likelihood that the Federal Reserve may not cut interest rates any time soon.

Ahead of the Fed, reports are expected on the GDP growth in the fourth quarter, manufacturing in the Midwest and national construction spending. Also, the ADP monthly employment survey is due, and serves as something of a precursor to Friday’s more closely-watched January jobs report. The reading on consumer confidence showed that the index rose to 110.3 in January from an upwardly revised 110 in December. This showed consumers most comfortable with the present situation, rather than the future, reflecting the strong jobs growth and lower oil and gas prices that have been seen recently.

Stock of 3M closed down $4.26 or 5.4% to $74.70, on posting a weaker-than-expected fourth-quarter profit and caution about the slowdown in the global economy. The slowdown in the U.S. housing and automotive markets had a significant negative impact on sales and gross margins in a handful of divisions. The company had a net profit of $1.18 billion, up from $746 million earned in the year-ago period.

Shares of United Parcel Service slumped about 2.7% after reporting fourth-quarter earnings that matched expectations but revenue and a 2007 outlook that fell short, as it forecast slowing domestic demand in the U.S. The company reported fourth-quarter earnings of $1.13 billion, up from $1.05 billion a year earlier. Its revenue rose 5.6% to $12.63 billion from $11.95 billion a year ago. In addition, UPS said it expects 2007 EPS of $4.10.

Stock of Procter & Gamble closed down $0.29 to $64.59, after reporting higher quarterly sales and earnings that topped estimates, thanks to strong sales of its consumer products. The company also boosted its 2007 profit outlook. However, investors focused on the company’s organic sales growth, which came in at the lower end of its guidance. Its second-quarter income rose 12% to $2.86 billion, from $2.55 billion a year ago. Its sales advanced 8% to $19.73 billion from $18.34 billion. Organic sales rose 5%, toward the low end of the company’s guidance.

Shares of Motorola closed up $1.27 or 7% to $19.58, on news that billionaire investor Carl Icahn is looking for a seat on the telecom’s board. Icahn owns about 33.5 million shares of the company, or about 1.3% of its shares outstanding. Icahn is famous for pressuring management for changes at companies in which he invests.

U.S. light crude oil for March delivery added $2.96 to settle at $56.97 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, a rise of 5.5 percent.

PortfolioCrafter - Market Commentary 1/29/07

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007

PortfolioCrafterStocks finished mixed after investors behaved cautiously in the face of sliding crude oil prices, a flurry of merger developments, and technology innovations from chip-making companies Intel Corp. and IBM. This is a heavy week with lots of earnings, economic data, and the Federal Reserve meeting. Any of these can move the market, so it is likely to remain choppy until investors can get a grip on the overall picture.”

Today, the Dow Jones Industrial average closed up 3.76 or 0.03% to 12,490.78, the broader S&P 500 closed down 1.56 or 0.11% to 1,420.62, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq composite closed up 5.60 or 0.23% to 2,441.09.

Market breadth was positive. On the New York Stock Exchange, winners beat losers 9 to 7 on volume of 1.54 billion shares. On the Nasdaq, advancers beat decliners 17 to 12 on volume of 1.94 billion shares.

Nearly one-fourth of the S&P 500 is due to report results this week. Currently, earnings are on track to have risen about 10% from the same quarter a year ago. The Fed meeting is scheduled this week where policymakers are widely expected to hold the key short-term interest rate steady. Investors will be paying close attention to what the bankers have to say about the economy and the future direction of interest rates in its accompanying statement. Concerns about a host of economic reports due out later this week, has also prompted investors to wait and watch.

There were a spate of merger and take-over news. Merril Lynch closed down $2.14 to $92.39, after stating that it would buy First Republic Bank for $1.8 billion. Stock of First Republic Bank closed up $15.33 to $53.63. Citigroup closed down $0.61 to $54.06, on announcing that it is buying Egg Banking from Britain’s Prudential PLC in a $1.13 billion deal. Altris closed up $5.41 to $32.55, on news that it will be bought by Symantec for about $830 million. Stock of Symantec closed down $0.25 to $17.52.

Shares of Bristol-Myers Squibb closed up $1.22 or 4.7% to $27.43, on merger speculation with the French pharmaceutical giant Sanofi-Aventis. This would make it the biggest drug company in the world. Bristol is understood to have signed a pre-merger deal. Stock of Sanofi closed down $0.64 to $44.70.

Intel and IBM both said separately that they are each developing smaller, faster chips. Stock of Intel closed up $0.36 to $20.89, and IBM closed up $1.09 to $98.54. Both companies are using “high-k” technology that substitutes a new material into a portion of the transistor that controls its primary on/off switching function, reducing leakage by more than 10 times.

U.S. light crude oil for March delivery fell sharply, easing $1.41 to settle at $54.01 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

PortfolioCrafter - Market Commentary 1/26/07

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

PortfolioCrafterStocks closed mixed as investors showed renewed interest in technology shares, while the broad market remained under pressure and posted weekly losses amid caution about rising long-term interest rates in the bond market. Worries about higher interest rates overshadowed the day’s corporate news, including upbeat earnings from Microsoft and Caterpillar, weaker results from Amgen and a Citigroup downgrade of Cisco Systems.

Today, the Dow Jones Industrial average closed down 15.54 or 0.12% to 12,487.02, and the broader S&P 500 closed down 1.72 or 0.12% to 1,422.18. The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite closed up 1.25 or 0.05% to 2,435.49. For the week, the Dow, S&P and Nasdaq all fell about 0.6%.

Market breadth was positive. On the New York Stock Exchange, winners beat losers by a margin of nine to seven on volume of 1.5 billion shares. On the Nasdaq, decliners topped advancers three to two on volume of 2 billion shares.

Revival of worries about the interest rate are behind this great sell-off. Investors clung to these worries as a second housing market report suggested a bottoming in new home sales. New home sales plunged 17.3% in 2006, the biggest drop in 16 years. The supply of completed homes available for sale rose to a record 172,000 in December, up nearly 50% from a year earlier. Adding fuel to fire, was the strong report on durable goods. New orders rose a larger-than-expected 3.1% in December as demand for aircraft and parts soared and most other sectors showed surprising strength. Excluding transportation orders, durable goods orders rose 2.3% in December following two monthly declines.

Next week brings a plate full of economic and fundamental information. Starting with the Fed meeting, a few big earnings announcements, such as Google, January’s consumer confidence report on Tuesday, the fourth-quarter GDP report on Wednesday, and then the jobs report on Friday. While strong economic growth is good for corporate profits and ultimately leads to stock gains, but investors may be concerned that if growth is too strong it will cause the Federal Reserve to start raising interest rates again.

Shares of Caterpillar closed up $1.46 or 2.5% to $61.09, after reporting higher quarterly earnings that missed estimates on higher sales that topped estimates. The company also issued a bullish 2007 earnings forecast. Its net quarterly profit rose 4.3%, helped by increased sales of its engines and other machinery.

Stock of Microsoft closed up $0.17 to $30.60, on reporting strong quarterly sales and earnings that beat estimates. While it reported a drop in profit for its fiscal second quarter, its sales and earnings beat analyst expectations thanks to strong sales of its Xbox 360 game console during the holidays.

Shares of Honeywell closed down $0.07 to $44.13, despite reporting higher quarterly sales and earnings. However, the company also issued a 2007 earnings forecast in a range that could miss analysts’ estimates. Its quarterly profit rose 13.8% on strong demand for its airplane components and systems used in commercial construction.

Stock of Amgen closed down $3.35 or 5% to $71.50, after reporting higher quarterly earnings that missed estimates on higher sales that topped estimates. Its EPS jumped 20% to 90 cents from 75 cents for the same period the previous year.

U.S. light crude oil for March delivery rallied $1.19 to $55.42 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

PortfolioCrafter - Market Commentary 1/25/07

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

PortfolioCrafterStocks closed sharply lower with the Dow Jones Industrial Average suffering its worst day of the year so far, as investors were shaken by a sell-off in the bond market, which sent long-term interest rates to five-month highs and fueled jitters about the housing market and the economy. The weak housing report added fuel to the fire.

Today, the Dow Jones Industrial average closed down 119.21 or 0.94% to 12,502.56, the broader S&P 500 closed down 16.23 or 1.13% to 1,423.9, and the Nasdaq closed down 32.04 or 1.3% to 2,434.24.

Market breadth was negative. On the New York Stock Exchange, losers beat winners 25 to 7 on volume of 1.70 billion shares. On the Nasdaq, decliners topped advancers 21 to 8 on volume of 2.2 billion shares.

Roughly one-third of the S&P 500 has reported earnings for the December quarter so far. Earnings are currently on track to rise 9.4% combining reported and expected earnings. This marks the slowest quarter of growth in nearly 5 years, reflecting both the effects of a slower growing economy and the tougher year-over-year comparisons after several years of strong growth. The slowdown in the global economy and its subsequent pressure on earnings may be an issue for stock investors, but that in the short term, stocks should be able to hang on to the upward bias that has been in place since last summer. The strength we’ve seen in the economy has pushed back the likelihood of a Fed rate cut and that’s put some jitters in the market.

The report on existing home sales saw the biggest drop last year in 17 years. Home sales in December also saw a bigger-than-expected decline. However, the report also showed that home prices may have bottomed out in December. There was a 8.4% drop in the existing home sales in 2006, falling to 6.48 million. It was the largest decline since a 14.8% drop in 1989.

Stock of eBay closed up $2.45 or 7.5% to $32.45, after reporting higher quarterly earnings that topped forecasts and issued a bullish first-quarter and full-year profit outlook. It reported an EPS of 31 cents against the expected 28 cents. Revenue was higher at $1.72 billion, up 29% from the $1.33 billion last year, and higher than the $1.67 billion predicted by analysts. The total value of all items sold on the site in the quarter reached $14.4 billion, up 20% from $12.0 billion in the year-ago quarter.

Shares of AT&T closed up $0.21 to $36.84, after reporting quarterly earnings that rose from a year earlier and topped estimates. The company also raised its forecast on the predicted benefits of its merger with SBC. The fourth-quarter income rose 17% to $1.9 billion, compared with $1.7 billion a year earlier. Revenue rose 23.1% to $15.9 billion from $12.9 billion.

Stock of Nokia Corp. rose 5.4% after delivering a forecast beating 19% increase in fourth-quarter profit. It also plans to buy back up to 4 billion euros in stock, and proposed an annual dividend of 0.43 euro a share, up 16% from 2005. Quarterly net income improved to 1.27 billion euros, from 1.07 billion euros a year earlier. Sales climbed 13% to 11.7 billion euros.

Shares of Ford Motor closed up $0.04 to $8.24, despite a bigger-than-expected fourth-quarter loss. The automaker also said it would cut production for the current quarter. Weak sales of its key pickup trucks in the quarter and $9.9 billion in after-tax charges due to employee buyouts and plant closing plans resulted in $12.7 billion loss for 2006.

U.S. light crude oil for March delivery fell $1.14 to settle at $54.23 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
