About market, TAPE closed near low of the day, again S&P 500 traded in an extremely narrow range of 12 points. Retail sales was the main culprit for this mini move down. Earnings are being greeted positively even IF there is a miss like NFLX missing subscriber growth expectations, this may be due to the fact that most technology stocks have pulled back too much from their fundamental valuation.
