Intraday Updates:
- 09:31 Looks like we'vve got a horse race on AAPL today. UBS just raised their target to $75 but we also had this earlier -- "Needham downgrade; Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal says sees little upside"
- 10:00 I'm watching UTIW after BB&T raised their target on it to $120 from $87
- 10:05 IMCL's popping...must be some news...
- 10:10 BIDU's ramping on more GOOG rumors
- 11:31 I'm still waiting on the market to choose a direction other than sideways. Things are about as flat as they could be, including the A/D line. An early lunch may be in order today...
