Good morning contrarians! Markets are on edge a bit after
$WMT’s surprise announcement after the close last night. The stock sold off, taking other retailers down with it.
Full disclosure: am long WMT and added to my holdings as stocks dropped, buying at $120/share
Today we get a mess of earnings:
$GM just fell short of estimates.
$MMM lowered their outlook. On the positive side
$GE and
$UPS beat estimates with the latter maintaining outlook and even increasing share buybacks.
