The ones that will get the most scrutiny promise to be in the financials, the
sector at the heart of the credit crunch. But the bad news is expected to come
from that group. So traders, in fact, may be more scared if other sectors' big
names miss their estimates.
State Street [STT 79.33 -0.46 (-0.58%) ] and US Bancorp [USB 32.62
-0.33 (-1%) ] report Tuesday; JPMorgan [JPM 42.53 -1.33 (-3.03%) ]
and Wells Fargo [WFC 27.97 -0.55 (-1.93%) ] are Wednesday; Merrill
Lynch [MER 43.68 -0.99 (-2.22%) ], CIT [CIT 11.79 -0.57 (-4.61%)
], TD Ameritrade
[AMTD 16.64 -0.65 (-3.76%) ], PNC [PNC 64.24 -0.46 (-0.71%) ] and
Bank of New York [BK 42.67 -0.59 (-1.36%) ] report Thursday, and
Citigroup [C 23.36 -0.35 (-1.48%) ] and Wachovia [WB 27.81 -0.06
(-0.22%) ] are Friday.
Big tech names include Intel [INTC 21.24 -0.84 (-3.8%) ], which reports
Tuesday after the bell. EBay
[EBAY 30.87 -1.09 (-3.41%) ] and IBM [IBM 116.0 -2.78 (-2.34%) ]
both report Wednesday afternoon, and Google
[GOOG 457.45 -11.63 (-2.48%) ] releases results Thursday after the bell.
Johnson and Johnson [JNJ 66.0 -0.33 (-0.5%) ] reports Tuesday; Abbott
Labs
[ABT 52.8 -0.75 (-1.4%) ] reports Wednesday and Pfizer [PFE 20.45
-0.47 (-2.25%) ] reports Thursday. Other names to watch include Coca-Cola
[KO 60.29 -1.04 (-1.7%) ] on Wednesday morning; United Technologies
[UTX 69.53 -2.32 (-3.23%) ] on Thursday and Caterpillar on Friday.
In other corporate news, the markets are watching a few possible mergers. The
Microsoft-Yahoo saga continues. Yahoo
[YHOO 28.34 -0.25 (-0.87%) ] mulls its options with Google [GOOG
457.45 -11.63 (-2.48%) ], Time Warner's
[TWX 14.27 -0.34 (-2.33%) ] AOL and its own recap of sorts, while
Microsoft [MSFT 28.28 -0.83 (-2.85%) ] threatens from the sidelines.
News Corp. [NWS 19.0 -0.44 (-2.26%) ] is at play with Microsoft, but
there is some thinking that News Corp. would not be part of a Yahoo bid, but a
partner brought in by Microsoft later.
Northwest Airlines [NWA 10.96 0.09 (+0.83%) ] and Delta Air Lines [DAL
10.01 0.26 (+2.67%) ] appear to be moving closer to a merger as pilots
work out their issues.
