seymour_greenz • July 30th 2015 09:30:50 AM
Good Morning,
NASDAQ Futures are down 10 with -17 Fair Value, Dow Futures are down 51. Futures were initially green before the Q2 GDP and jobless claim numbers. FB reported earnings yesterday and is currently down about 2%, despite a beat, perhaps due to Non-GAAP operating margins. WFM disappointed and is down over 12%, on the other hand, T-Mobile (TMUS), a Goalio favorite, impresses and is up 2%.
Yesterday AAPL had a slightly weak day and closed near 123, but immediately dropped to 122.5 in after-hours trading coinciding closely with FB earnings release. This morning in pre-market AAPL has struggled to return to 123, hitting a high of 122.96 at 6:16am before sliding back down. AAPL is currently down 71 cents to 122.28.
Classic max-pain is now 124, yesterday it was 125.
