Friday's Pre-Market

The market is expected to open slightly lower today due to the lower than expected May durable goods orders fell 0.3% vs. consensus of +0.4%, because of the sharp decline in Boeing aircraft orders. Orders excluding transportation rose 0.7% and nondefense capital goods orders which provide a clearer read on underlying business capital investment, rose 1.0%.
Consolidation of Oil and Natural Gas Producers is the story of the day. (APC) is buying (WGR) and (KMG).
A biotech company (NBIX) is dumped by (PFE). This shows you how risky small biotech stock can be.
