Tuesday's Stocks to Watch

The stock markets are trading higher at 2:10pm EST. It has been a see-saw battle between the bear and bull all day long. February PPI fell by a larger-than-expected 1.4%. It was forecasted to have a 0.2% decline. It was the biggest drop in wholesale PPI in almost three years. However, core PPI (excludes food and energy), rose 0.3% worse than the estimate of 0.1%. Stocks fell initially at the open, but it recovered and push the break-even point. I believe the market is waiting for any kind of good news to march higher.
