FBC Countdown To The Closing Bell December 24, 2012
The dow is up 44 points. The russell 2000 down four tenths of a percent. Not a lot of movement. Twentyfour of the 30 dow components are in the red. Tech stocks, though, are the biggest drag. Hewlettpackard is the worst performer on the down right now. Microsoft is also, well, soft. Similar story for research in motion. Rim plunged 23 on concerns of its services and business. We approach the tail end of the Holiday Shopping season. Home depot, by the way, solidly in the grain. One of the best performers on the dow this year. Walmart just barely on the upside. Costco slightly down. That gets you...
