The futures have improved a bit since the housing data was released at 8:30. So now we're set for a slightly higher open and maybe the housing stocks will be saved from another plunge. Once again I have nothing but shorts on the swing trade list. Let's see if they take 'em down...
Potential swing trades:
Shorts: ADSK, AGE, AMTD, BBD, BEN, CHAP, COH, CRM, CSX, CTXS, FAST, FFIV, FRK, FWLT, INFY, KBH, MGI, NYX, RYL, SPSN, VCLK, WCC, WTR, WY, ZRAN
Longs: None
See one of the recent 'Chart Reading' posts for some potential swing candidates.
