Trends last week in the stock market were up and down. Trends this week in the
stock market appear to be riding a similar roller coaster as well. Currently,
the DJIA, Nasdaq and S&P 500 are moving in positive territory. The Dow Jones
started the week out with positive movement, but then dropped back below
break-even yesterday due to negatively skewed economic data stemming from the
Eurozone markets and housing starts in the U.S. Today, trends are in the green
once again. Stocks are moving higher on stronger earnings reports this day. At
the mid-day mark of the trading session, the Dow was higher by .62 percent at
11,476.51. The Nasdaq was higher by .28 percent at 2,530.43 and the S&P 500 was
green by .80 percent at 1,202.26. Noteworthy earning headlines are posting via
Staples and Target. Staples reported that second quarter earnings were above
expectations and stock soared as a result. Target reported that expectations
were surpassed as well. Target reported that second quarter earnings posted
higher per share results. Stock for TGT surged higher today as well. According
to MSN Money stock quotes, Target stock is currently posting higher by 2.75
percent at 50.73. Previous close for Target stock was 49.37. The 52 week higher
for TGT is 60.97 and the 52 week low is 45.28. Frank Matto
