Trading Radar: Focus Shifts to Struggling EU
Stay one step ahead of the rest.
On Monday most will be nursing a Super Bowl hangover but expect those bloodshot eyes to focus on Europe and the euro and expect that to continue until a solution to the debt problems have been found. Here are some of the best articles on the topic.
- The Weight of an Indebted World
- The Bears Are Back With a Vengeance
- The Spiraling Debt of Greece and Other PIIGS
In addition to worrying about the solvency of nations, next week traders will be focused on Retail Sales data, Michigan Sentiment and Bond Auctions. Earnings season is also still kicking. Traders will be watching for reports from Baidu (BIDU), Disney (DIS), NYSE Group (NYX), and Pepsi (PEP)
