Good MorningThe correction in equities appears to be over, at least for now. Equity markets fell in the pre-market action on the fallout from Wednesday's FOMC Revelations but Traders and investors were quick to scoop up the bargains. Thursday's action was bolstered by two pieces of better-than-expected economic data as well as a round of much better than expected earnings news from the retail sector.
On the economic front, the weekly jobless claims figure and the Index of Leading Indicators were both better than expected. With employment on the mend and economic activity on the rise, S&P 500 earnings could be far better than expected in the second half of the year. Next week is light on the earnings news but comes with a very key economic report, the monthly Personal Income and Spending data to include the Fed's favored measure of consumer inflation the PCE Price Index.
