Stock Movement Reason Our Comments
GE Up 50 cents. GE Capital declares special dividend to parent. First dividend payment from GE capital to parent since   2009.  Company says dividend shows the strength of GE capital.  Topped out at   18.97 in premarket.  That area has some HFT resistance in front of 19.

 

JCP Down $4.50 Earnings last night. Disappoints, axes dividend. Old support area of 30 might   now provide some resistance.  Major support in 25 area.

 

ANF Down $2.40 Earnings. 52 week low of 40.25 is key support.

 

TGT Up $1.50. Earnings. Wow…premarket high of 58.99 way overdone as there is major resistance up there.  Stock pulling   back significantly since making that high. 56 area could be key swing number.

 

DE Up 1 point. Earnings. 80 area has some significant resistance.

 

GM Up 80 cents. Berkshire discloses new   stake in GM. Nice lift off Buffett disclosure.  22.50 area has some significant resistance.

HD Down $2.18 Earnings. Overall, report looked pretty good, but stock being taken   out behind the woodshed.  48 should be a key swing number.

 

LOW Down 1 point. Sympathy move. Falling in sympathy with HD move.  Some initial support in 28 area.

 

GRPN Up 21%. Earnings last night. Strong guidance. Following yesterday’s 18% gain, with another 20% gain after reporting earnings last night.  Some shorts are being squeezed here…BIG TIME. Trading this stock is a bit like gambling, as there is not a lot of defined levels.

 

AVP Down 13%. Coty pulls offer. AVP played around too long, and Coty pulls bid.  18 area may provide some initial support.

 

DKS Up 2 points. Earnings. 50 should provide some decent psychological   resistance.  Major resistance up in 51.50 area.

 

A Bid up 50 cents. Earnings last night. 41 area could provide some decent resistance.

JPM Down slightly. Continued volatility. Bottomed out at 36.30 in premarket this morning, now   bouncing. Major resistance at Friday’s high of 37.99.  Some decent support in 35 area.

 

CHK Up $1.30 Icahn stake? WSJ reports that Icahn may announce a major stake in CHK.  These Icahn spikes are often short-lived.

 

AVP Up 80 cents. Still in play. Board will respond to Coty’s offer in a week. When stocks   are in play, technicals go away.  But   that being said, this stock has been range bound last 2 weeks with major   support at 19.50 and major resistance in 22 area.

 

DB, BCS, RBS, CS, ING Down 1-4%. Euro-banks weak overseas. Some Euro banks making new 3 month lows in premarket.  Entire financial sector still under   pressure following JPM news on Friday.

 

TOL, RYL, PHM, MTH, DHI Up across the board. Upgrades at Guggenheim. Guggenheim bullish on the home builders this morning. This   sector has been quietly one of the best sectors in the S&P this   year.  Many of the home builders are   near 52 week highs.
