M A R K E T .. S N A P S H O T -- Warnings to put a damper on shares

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- The futures markets turned sour and a dour tone enveloped the market as a profit warning from Juniper Networks hit the tape.

September S&P 500 futures lost 4.50 points, or 0.3 percent, and were trading roughly 5.50 points below fair value, according to HL Camp & Co. And Nasdaq futures edged up 2.00 points, or 0.1 percent.

Networking outfit Juniper Networks (JNPR) warned that second-quarter earnings-per-share are now expected to come in at 8 to 9 cents a share vs. the 24 cents that had been expected by First Call/Thomson Financial. And revenue for the second quarter is predicted to come in at $200 to $210 million, down from the original guidance of $300 to $330 million. Juniper also said it will implement cost-cutting measures, including an 8 to 9 percent headcount reduction. The stock tumbled 12 percent in the pre-market while Cisco Systems lost 82 cents to $21, giving up earlier gains in London trading.

Separately, fund flow tracker d that all equity funds got an inflow of $10.9 billion in the week ended June 6 vs. outflows of $3.6 billion in the prior week. And equity funds that invest primarily in U.S. stocks had inflows of $7.2 billion compared with outflows of $1.2 billion the prior week.

In the Treasury arena, prices wandered close to the flat line, with the 10-year Treasury note off 1/32 to yield ($TNX) 5.33 percent while the 30-year government bond added 2/32 to yield ($TYX) 5.72 percent.

Rating agency Moody's Investors service noted that the record breaking corporate bond issuance of 2001's first five months is predominantly due to the refinancing of an unprecedented contraction of commercial paper outstanding.

"CP outstanding is now engaged in its most pronounced contraction since the 1991 recession year. The shrinkage of CP outstanding can be ascribed to a widespread retrenchment of capital spending, a slump in M&A activity, as well as to a possible or actual downgrade of a commercial paper program from the top shelf rating of P-1. Institutional rigidities severely limit the size of the market for CP that is graded less than P-1," Moody's John Lonski commented in his daily research note.
