Good MorningThe equities market went on a wild ride on Friday, beginning the day up more than 3.0% only to post losses and then gains later in the day. The volatility was driven by a combination of factors that amount to one thing in the eyes of market technicians; the market is scared and ready to fall on bad news but there are still plenty of buyers ready to scoop up cheap stocks. The adage buy-on-the-dip aptly describes market action at the tail end of the week.
Next week investors will be faced with another round of potentially bad news. Along with a slew of economic reports the first major earnings report of the 2nd quarter cycle is due to be released. Oracle, a blue-chip in the tech world, is expected to post revenue and earnings roughly in-line with the previous. On the economic front, May retail sales, the Home Builders Index, and the Index of Leading Indicators are all sure to move the market.
