The stock markets are trading lower at 2:00pm EST. The market initially went up in the morning, then the strength faded away in the afternoon. Perhaps it is due to the fact that weekend is coming and such a big move in the past few sessions. All indexes went into new highs, traders wanted to take a breath for now. The up momentum is still intact. I would use any mild pullback as buying opportunities.

Friday's Pre-Market
The market looks like it will open slightly flat to slightly lower today. At 8:30am EST, the US government announced that Feb. Personal Income and Spending rose 0.3% and 0.1% respectively, about in-line with the 0.4% and 0.0% consensus estimates. The price of oil has given back 1.2% trading at $66.31 per barrel. Because of the weekend is coming, traders may have less incentive to hold positions over the weekend in case anything big happens in the Geopolitical arena.

Thursday's Stocks to Watch
With the exception of the DOW (30 biggest stocks), the stock markets are trading slightly lower at 2:00pm EST. The market initially popped in the morning, then the strength faded away in the afternoon. Most of the DOW stocks are down, except (GE). Tech heavy Nasdaq is still holding on the flat line. Today is the day for fund managers to re-shuffle stocks to window dress their profolios. That translates winners will be going higher, losers will be going lower. I believe there are more upsides coming in the following weeks.
