From www.optionmonster.com ....................GLTA Nasdaq 100 breaks two upside levelsThe indexes rose modestly yesterday but gave up a large chunk of their gains into the close. The Nasdaq 100 was the standout on the upside, rolling up two resistance levels as previous resistance becomes support today. The S&P 500 once again barely edged above its first resistance level. The Russell 2000 made small moves that were basically non-events. Nasdaq 100 (NDX)Support is at 2389.91, 2375.10, and 2359.82. Resistance is at the October pivot high of 2412.52 and then the 52-week high at 2438.44. S&P 500 (SPX)Support is at 1292.66, then 1284.91, and a previous pivot high at 1277.55. Major support below that level would be at 1257.72, its 200-day moving average. Resistance is at 1305.44 and then at 1315.94. Russell 2000 (RUT)Support is at its 200-day moving average of 759.49, then a recent pivot high at 752.71, and thereafter at 758.73, its 10-day moving average. Resistance is at 773.58 and then at 786.24. |

From www.optionmonster.com ...........................GLTA Housing, retail, producer data on tapToday's economic calendar is full as many of the reports normally expected early in the week have been pushed forward. Tomorrow will be an equally busy day. At 7 a.m. ET, the weekly MBA Purchase Applications data will be released. Economists do not make forecasts for this report, and I only look at the purchases component because it indicates new economic activity as opposed to refinancing. Last week purchases came in at 177.1. A reading higher by 5 percent or more would likely be seen as bullish, while one lower by the same margin would be bearish. At 7:45 a.m. ET, the weekly ICSC/Goldman Store Sales report will be released. There are two parts to the report, the week-over-week and year-over-year changes. Most traders focus on the year-over-year number because it is a better indicator of the longer-term trend. The last week-over-week reading came in at -5.4 percent, and the year-over-year data in the previous report showed a gain of 2.8 percent. Stronger-than-expected positive numbers would be seen as bullish, while negative numbers would be bearish. At 8:30 a.m. ET, the Producer Price Index comes out. There are two components to the report, one with and one without food and energy. With food and energy included, the index is expected to show a gain of 0.1 percent. Without food and energy, expectations are the same, a gain of 0.1 percent. The range of forecasts including food and energy, the so-called headline number, run from a disinflationary loss of -0.3 percent to a moderately inflationary 0.4 percent. Estimates for the so-called core number, without food and energy, range from no change to 0.2 percent. Those numbers would all be essentially neutral. The weekly Redbook Store Sales will be reported at 8:55 a.m. ET. As with the ICSC-Goldman report, there are two components to watch: the more volatile month-over-month change and the year-over-year comparison, which shows the broader trend best. The last month-over-month number came in at -1.2 percent, while the year-over-year data showed a gain of 3.3 percent. Negative numbers in either series would be bearish. At 9:15 a.m. ET, Industrial Production will be released. The consensus forecast calls for a rise of 0.5 percent. Estimates range from no change, which would be bearish, to a bullish gain of 0.8 percent. The Housing Market Index will be reported at 10 a.m. ET. The index is expected to show no change, at 21. Expectations range from a bearish 20 to a bullish 25. |

GS Beat on Earnings... $1.84 v. $1.24. Revenue down just a smidge though. Yeah, but they beat an already-revised-downward target. A little underwhelming, kinda like the feeling Luke Skywalker must have had after kissing Princess Leia (only to find out later she was his sister).  Most likely, this gets sold. |

Goldman Misses Top Line, Beats EPS On Comp Cut, Pays Average Employee $367,057 In 2011
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/18/2012 - 08:08
Jim O'Neill
Cutting down to the chase on Goldman's numbers, the top line was weak, with the company reporting $6.05 billion in total Q4 revenue on expectations of $6.39 billion. The primary reason was a decline in all segments Year over Year with Investment Banking tumbling 43% to $863 Million, Institutional Client Sales down 16% to $3.1 billion, Investment Management down 16% (great work Jim O'Neill) to $1.3 billion, and finally Goldman Prop, or as it is politically correctly now known, Investing and Lending, down 56% to just $872 million, although much better than the massive Q3 loss of $2.5 billion. All this was offset by compensation benefits of $2.2 billion, which resulted in a Q4 Compensation Margin of 36.5%, down from the 44.5% average previously in 2011. As a reminder, back in Q4 2009, Goldman had negative compensation expense of $519 million to make its EPS. The result was total comp of $12.2 billion in 2011, or 42.4% compensation payoff, compared to $15.4 billion in 2010. Yet since the company let the axe fly, cutting total staff from 35,700 at December 31, 2010 to 33,300 at year end 2011, or the lowest since Q1 2010, average trailing 12 month compensation per employee rose to $367,057.06, also known as "not much" for Mitt Romney.

Well, I was way off on my guess that banks would sell off on the GS #'s. FAS has had a nice climb since the open. I carried half of yesterday's FAZ overnight, and promptly got stopped out after the open. Still profitable, but not like I expected it to be.
I still think GS gets sold later today or tomorrow, but I'll wait to confirm before I reenter FAZ.
GL all!
