Waiting for Jobs Data

Thursday the S&P futures are up 2.80 points, while the Nasdaq futures have gained 8.00 points. News of a settlement between Microsoft (MSFT) and the Bush administration is helping the tech stocks extend yesterday's Nasdaq gains.

We expect Thursday's trading to remain choppy, as participants await tomorrow morning's jobs report. We expect non-farm payrolls to drop by a greater-than-expected number, which should lead to short-term disappointment that the economy continues to weaken despite the Fed's best efforts. The churning we saw yesterday, where the Nasdaq was up but the Dow closed lower to reverse early gains, suggests that overhead resistance remains too great at these levels. We expect the market to have greater downside risk once these numbers are reported tomorrow morning. An eventual retest of the September lows is in the cards over the next 4-5 weeks here.
