Technical Commentary:
The SPY gave back early gains late in the day as the
Euro pulled back. TNX finished higher and the VIX
lower. CSCO gap lower led many tech stocks that moved up Wednesday lower on Thursday.
After the close JPM disclosed in a conference call that it has a $2 billion trading loss from large
positions in credit-default swaps that will affect its Q2 results.
JPM was down -2.74 or -6.73% after
the close. Other bank stocks and XLF moved lower. SPY and ES futures also moved lower, but
stayed above Wednesday’s support level.
Watch TNX and
the Euro Friday morning to observe
if JPM announcement affects the broader market or if it will be a short term impact and
primarily limited to JPM.
