About market, TAPE was strong and all major indices closed @ new all time highs, this has not happened since December 1999. Earnings are giving boost to this market and oil was strong today, on hope of Saudi cutback in production from record level. 

Before open JCP will report, here are the expectations :

Sales $2.93 billion, EPS loss of 15 cents

Expectations of next Q sales $2.97 billion, EPS loss of 20 cents

Market is expecting a move of 13.8% UP or Down, i am hoping of an UP move.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Saleem,

Sold DKS @ 54.60 to take profits.

After multiple positive notes/upgrades today, I think short term positive sentiment is peaking which could lead to a decline after earnings. The CFO leaving the company after such a short time begs questions, and sporting goods showed weakness in July in the retail sales report.
