- SeekingAlpha.com Market Currents
- On a day expected to be full of bruises for Bernanke, the statement from Sen. Jim Bunning - the only senator who voted against the Fed chairman's original confirmation four years ago - is still a standout, calling Bernanke's Fed a "creature from Jekyll Island" and going on: "Rather than making management, shareholders, and debt holders feel the consequences of their risk-taking, you bailed them out. In short, you are the definition of moral hazard."
- Treasurys are still flat to weak across the curve, with 30-year futures -0.79% to 120-31; 10-year -0.32%; 5-year -0.15%. Dollar +1% against yen, +0.4% against pound, but -0.3% against euro, -0.3% against Swiss franc, -0.3% against Aussie dollar.
- Wrestling with mixed news and data - and not much news coming from the Bernanke hearing - stocks have traded very tightly along a line for the past four hours. Financials, energy and basic materials all show some weakness while consumer cyclicals are strong. With an hour left in the session, the Dow -0.2% to 10,437; S&P 500 -0.2% to 1,108; Nasdaq +0.2% to 2,190. Crude -0.2%. Natural gas -1.7%. Silver -1.4%. Gold +0.3%.
- More rapid developments from GM, which says that it may reinstate some dealers scheduled for closure. A new plan will detail the company's decision criteria and provide for face-to-face reviews for dealers still under agreement.
- FDIC chief Sheila Bair says she may ask lenders to cut principal payments on mortgages they get from seized banks, rather than cutting interest or deferring principal. Separately, Bair advised caution on allowing TARP repayments too quickly, warning there won't be more government support for big financial firms going forward.
- Despite some easy yearly comps, rail traffic isn't showing improvement. Intermodal traffic is down 6.4% from poor numbers in 2008 - and down 32% from 2007.
- The stock's responding, but it's hard for the rest of us to get excited about BofA's (BAC +3%) TARP repayment plan, says Noam Scheiber: It just proves "if you were a badly run commercial bank that had the good fortune of merging with a big investment bank just before a massive run-up in financial asset prices, then you're probably going to look relatively healthy before too long even if your lending business still stinks."
- Dow leaders: BAC +3.5%. INTC +1.7%. GE +1.3%. T +1.2%. Dow laggards: AXP -4.1%. TRV -1.9%. HD -0.8%. MMM -0.7%. KO -0.6%.
- "I've done a lot of deals in my life," Comcast's (CMCSA) 89-year-old cofounder Ralph J. Roberts told GE (GE) CEO Jeff Immelt one early July afternoon. "Every deal has its time. This is the right time." Andrew Ross Sorkin and Tim Arango tell the tale of Comcast's closelipped courtship of NBC Universal.
- Sector ETF strength: Solar– KWT +2.1%. Semis– IGW +1.8%. Real Estate– IYR +1.5%. Clean Energy– PBW +1.1% Sector ETF weakness: Regional Banks– RKH -1.3%. Oil Services– OIH -1.2%. Insurance– KIE -1.2%. Commercial Banks– KBE -1.1%. Gold Miners– GDX -1%. Silver– SLV -0.9%.
