The Day Ahead

Good morning, its Tuesday May 10th, the 130th day of 2005 and another quiet day for the market in terms of economic reports.

On the energy side, perhaps not so quiet, with Crude trading up almost one half percent at 52.28, putting a drag on stock index futures before the market open. The US dollar has so far failed at a recent test of swing high and is nearing the prior swing low, but is off only marginally in the process; Gold is up one quarter percent to 427.90.

On with the day…
