The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 8178 on 7/8/09, as the stock market was down for most of the day on lower energy prices as well as the lack of buying before Alcoa ( AA ) earnings tonight. The Dow Jones Futures started the day slightly higher but the morning bounce faded which left the Dow Jones testing 8100 in the early afternoon. A 10 year treasury bond auction went well and briefly cause the stock market trade go back to even but stocks quickly traded back to their lows. Tonight the the new earnings season kicks off with Alcoa ( AA ) which is expected to lose $0.38 per share. This earnings report will set the stage for tomorrow.

Heavy buying in the last half hour of trading caused the stock market to close green which was led by technology and retail stocks. Check out some of the events I will be watching for Thursday.
