2 Stocks To Trade, What's Next For The Market

The market saw some profit taking occur during the week on a light week of economic data, but this week may be another one for the bulls. First, it is the last week of the month and quarter, which is always a time for "window dressing." The market has a lot of data, on the docket, as well that will definitely be influential to the market. In addition to data, we have further developments coming out of Europe. The situation in China influenced the market a lot last week, and we will have to see how that story develops this week as well.

There is a lot of economic data coming out this week to watch for. Monday will be Pending Home Sales. Tuesday we will get the very important Consumer Confidence. Wednesday will see the announcement of Durable Orders and Crude Inventories. Thursday and Friday are the big days. Thursday, the market will get Initial Claims and Q4 GDP estimate. Finally, Friday we finish out the week with Personal Income, Personal Spending, Michigan Consumer Sentiment, and Chicago PMI. Consumer Confidence, GDP,The best rubbersheets products on sale,VulcanMold is a plastic molds and injectionmold manufacturer in china. and Friday's data reports are the big ones. Those are the reports that can really impact this market this week. Good reports will definitely move the market if window dressing occurs.

Outside of data, the European and Asian situations remain crucial. Asia created an issue for the market with its slowdown last week. This week, Asia does not have any economic data, so is unlikely it will create a negative situation for the market. The big news out of Europe this week is German Consumer Price Index and Unemployment Change. Europe also has a fairly light week as far as data, so if they can stay out of the way...the market has a shot at some solid upside.

So, what will the market be focusing in on: data, China's growth issue, and window dressing calendar. On a contrarian note, the market has been very solid in the first 3 months of 2012. What is some fund managerrs and investors wanted to spend the week locking in profits on positions that had done well...Overall, though, the market is going to be looking for headlines to give us direction. Without much out of Europe, China, and some limited data from us here at home...the marketmakers may be able to take the market wherever they want.

We do have some interesting earnings coming out this week that, while they may not move the market, will be signals for what to expect in April. Tuesday we get Walgreen's (WAG), which is a solid bellwether that will go along well with consumer confidence. Wednesday we get Mosaic (MOS), Paychex (PAYX), and Family Dollar (FDO). Mosaic will give us a look into the ag sector. Paychex will give us a healthy look into employment, and Family Dollar gives us a nice look into discount retail. Thursday will bring us Best Buy (BBY) and Research in Motion (RIMM).Welcome to the Lilla beddinges google satellite map! Neither company has been much of a stalwart as of late, but we are curious to see how well BBY is doing with Best Buy Mobile and Apple sales helping them.

Overall, we see the market being bullish this week as fund managers will try to do some window dressing, and we believe that there is not a lot of data or situations that can create significant issues for the market.There are 240 distinct solutions of the Soma cubepuzzle, China will continue to create an issue for the market if it slows down. Additionally, at any point Europe can flare up again. With those situations quiet, the market does have the ability to take off this week.Welcome to the Lilla beddinges google satellite map!
