Afternoon Note

The market continues to grapple for traction, but mixed earnings and economic data make it tough to really get out of the gate.
Considering headline retail sales report, the action in consumer discretionary names is very intriguing. There is serious bottom fishing with big winners including:
- Capri (CPRI)
- Gap Stores (GPS)
- Macy’s (M)

On the flip side, technology looks ugly today with Workday (WDAY) taking it on the chin after their Investor’s Day yesterday. I’ve gone through most reports and I can’t see why selling is this intense. Meanwhile, all eyes are on Netflix (NFLX) which got hammered four of the last five earnings releases.
