Stock Quotes 2/24/09 February 24, 2009 - Stock Prices

Below is a list of Stock Quotes/ Stock Prices for some of the most followed stocks on Wall Street. I watch these stocks daily for signs the stock market is ready to bounce. If these stocks start to turn around, the stock market will most likely turn around. This will then cause some of the more risky stocks to bounce as well.

Today is the calm before tonight's storm. President Barack Obama will give his first State of the Union Address and Wall Street will be listening for any signs of a plan or further action. The Stock Market could be a big mover tomorrow on what Obama says ( or doesn't say ) tonight.

Moody's might cut American Express AXP rating

CNBC is reporting that Moody's might end up cuting the rating of American Express ( AXP )....this news has caused the Dow to decline even more here in the last hour. Mastercard ( MA ) and Visa ( V ) are also sinking with this news.

Something to keep an eye on also....Oil - There is a pipeline in Turkey that has gone down which transports 1 million barrels per day. When the news hit early this morning Oil prices took off up $3 at one point....they have since come back down. This pipeline is due back up in 2 weeks.

Natural Gas is plunging yet again after going above $9 this morning. One of these day Nat Gas will be up huge.

Tonight I will be watching Jones Soda ( JSDA ) earnings. I know the stock is only $2.50 but I happen to believe in the brand and I think once they get things in order...this stock can go to $10-$15 per share. I assess this company quarter to quarter and I will be getting back in one of these days.
