Disclaimer: Today's trading performance is not an indication of my future performance and not an indication of the future performance for any trader that decides to learn/apply WRB Analysis. The risk of loss can be substantial. Therefore, you must carefully consider if trading is suitable for you within the context of your financial condition. We make no guarantees of success and your level of success is dependent upon other factors including your skill as a trader, knowledge, financial condition, market conditions and other factors. Trading is stressful and you should always consult a doctor in all matters relating to physical and mental health of you and your family because trading can impact beyond your financial condition regardless if you're a profitable or losing trader.

Today's Trade Log is archived @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/ftchat/forum/viewtopic.php?f=172&t=2680

All of my trades are posted real-time at the above link for today's archive chat log in the timestamp ##TheStrategyLab free chat room via the user name wrbtrader for anyone to do a real-time review (you must be a member of the chat room for a real-time review). Although the trades are posted by me and other users of WRB Analysis in real-time...this is not a signal calling chat room nor is this a live trading room that has a head trader telling you what to do. I'm the moderator (I keep the peace between members) and my own live trades are posted within 3.2 seconds on average after the trade confirmation in my broker trade execution platform via an auto script to minimize delays in posting of my trades. You can review today's price action trade journal about my trades (e.g. time, price entry, contract size, price exit, market analysis) as the trade traversed to its completion. In addition, sometimes I'll post real-time trading tips in the free ##TheStrategyLab chat room involving WRBs, WRB Hidden GAPs, Key Market Events (KME), WRB Zones, Reaction Highs/Lows, Contracting Volatility or Expanding Volatility...all key concepts from the WRB Analysis free study guide even though the free chat room is not design to be an education chat room because the education is only performed at the forums in the private threads.

Quote:
2017 has been the most difficult trading year since I've begun trading +25 years ago because successful trading involves more than just trade methods than any other trading year. This is a key concept many traders have difficulties in understanding. Some blame it on algorithms while I blame it on the inability to adapt, failure to backtest, failure to document trades (real-money or simulator) and underestimating how our environment influences our cognitive decision making while trading...all while trading in low volatility market conditions that statistically have the reputation for difficult trading.

Image ##TheStrategyLab Chat Room is free. The free chat room is not a signal calling trading room nor is it a live trading room with a head trader even though members of the chat room are posting their trades & market analysis in real-time. I do not mentor (never have) although I get many requests to do mentoring. There is education but only in members private threads at the forum involving members asking questions (help) about their own trading. Thus, the primary purpose of TheStrategyLab free chat room is for you to use as your trade journal so that you can use as valuable feedback about your own trading and for members to help each other...as in more eyes on the market. In addition, we highly recommend that you use the free chat room with a professional trade journal software like tradebench.com, edgewonk.com, tradervue.com, tradingdiarypro.com, stocktickr.com, journalsqrd.com, tradingdiary.pro, mxprofit.com or trademetria.com because they can provide you with the quantitative statistical analysis of your trading. You can then download your results and post them in your private thread at the forum.

Also, you can use TheStrategyLab free chat room to ask real-time WRB Analysis questions. Yet, please do not post your quantitative statistical analysis, brokerage statements in the free chat room. Instead, its highly recommended that you only post that particular information in your private thread for security reasons. Yet, if you want to post that type of information at another website, blog or chat room...that's your choice.

TheStrategyLab free chat room is on IRC via users request because the IRC servers are located in many different countries, software in many different languages, many different mobile apps, many different types of social media software can be used to log in along with IRC being easier to moderate via script codes when trouble makers, spammers and trolls show up. I'm the moderator of the free chat room via the user name wrbtrader. Thus, I keep the peace between members without hesitation in removing problematic traders so that members can peacefully post their market observations, trades, WRB Analysis commentary about the markets without being trolled or harassed.

TheStrategyLab free chat room is not for traders looking for someone to hold their hands and tell them when to buy or sell nor do we allow the free chat room to be used for mentoring because we do not offer a mentoring service. The purpose of TheStrategyLab is for you to post your real-time analysis or trades so that you can review as feedback for any trading day to provide valuable information about the results in your broker statements. If you join the free chat room and then you decide to not post any WRB Analysis about the price action or you decide to not post your trades or you decide to be silent (lurk without saying a word about today's markets)...you're not using the free chat room properly to help improve your trading.

In fact, we do not want silent (lurkers) traders to join the free chat room unless they are actively posting at the forum about their trading after the markets close. Access instructions for the free chat room @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/tsl/forum/viewforum.php?f=164

Market Context Summaries

The below summaries by Bloomberg, Briefing, Reuters and Yahoo! Finance helps me to do a quick review of the fundamentals, FED/ECB/BOE/IMF actions or any important global economic events (e.g. Eurozone, MarketWatch.com) that had an impact on today's price action in many trading instruments I monitor during the trading day. Simply, I'm a strong believer that key market events causes key changes in supply/demand and volatility resulting in trade opportunities (swing points and strong continuation price actions) that reach profit targets. Thus, I pay attention to these key market events, intermarket analysis (e.g. Forex EurUsd, EuroFX 6E futures, Gold GC futures, Light Crude Oil (WTI) CL & Brent Oil futures, Eurex DAX futures, Euronext FTSE100 futures, Emini ES futures, Emini TF futures, Treasury ZB futures and U.S. Dollar Index futures) while using WRB Analysis from one trade to the next trade to give me the market context for price action trading before the appearance of my technical analysis trade signals. Therefore, I maintain these archives for easy review to allow me to understand what was happening on any given trading day in the past involving key market events to help better understand my trade decisions (day trading, swing trading, position trading)...something I can not get from my broker PnL statements alone. Further, most financial websites remove (delete) their archives after a few years to make room for new content. Therefore, I maintain my own archives of the news content so that I have it available for me when financial websites no longer archives their content.

Moving the Market

Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOG) soar following earnings

Advance Q3 GDP beats estimates (+3.0% actual vs +2.4% Briefing.com consensus)

Sector Watch
Strong: Technology, Consumer Discretionary
Weak: Financials, Industrials, Energy, Materials, Health Care, Consumer Staples, Utilities, Telecom Services, Real Estate
04:30PM ET

[BRIEFING.COM] Facing its first weekly loss since the week ended September 8, the stock market rallied on Friday, underpinned by the latest batch of earnings, which featured impressive results from mega-cap names like Amazon (AMZN 1100.95, +128.52), Microsoft (MSFT 83.81, +5.05), and Alphabet (GOOG 1019.27, +46.71). The three companies finished at new record highs, as did the S&P 500 (+0.8%) and the tech-heavy Nasdaq (+2.2%). The Dow (+0.1%) also moved higher, but finished a ways behind its peers due to select underperformers.

Friday's advance carried the major indices into positive territory for the week. The Nasdaq was the top performer this week, adding 1.1%, while the Dow and the S&P 500 finished with weekly gains of 0.5% and 0.2%, respectively.

The S&P 500's technology sector easily finished Friday at the top of the sector standings, climbing 2.9%. Microsoft and Alphabet deserved much of the credit for the sector's advance, as they jumped 6.4% and 4.8%, respectively, after reporting better-than-expected earnings and revenues. However, Intel (INTC 44.40, +3.05) also contributed--climbing 7.4%--after beating both top and bottom line estimates and raising its guidance for the fiscal year, as did fellow mega caps Apple (AAPL 163.05, +5.64) and Facebook (FB 177.88, +7.25), which added 3.6% and 4.3%, respectively.

Apple was helped not only by the positive sentiment surrounding Microsoft's and Alphabet's earnings, but also by the company's announcement that its new iPhone X sold out in a matter of minutes amid "off the charts" demand. Both Apple and Facebook will report earnings in the middle of next week.

As for Amazon, the internet retail giant surged 13.2% on better-than-expected earnings and revenues, pinning the consumer discretionary sector (+1.6%) right behind technology at the top of the leaderboard. Outside of the technology and consumer discretionary spaces, which were obviously juiced by the aforementioned companies, no group finished with a gain of more than 0.6%.

The energy sector (+0.2%) benefited from an increase in the price of crude oil, which climbed 2.4% to $53.91/bbl, but was weighed down by Chevron (CVX 113.54, -4.90), which dropped 4.1% despite reporting above-consensus earnings and revenues. On a related note, Exxon Mobil (XOM 83.71, +0.24) ticked up 0.3% after beating bottom-line estimates.

Similar to Chevron, pharmaceutical giant Merck (MRK 58.24, -3.75) dropped 6.1%, hitting a fresh 2017 low, despite beating earnings estimates and raising its guidance for the fiscal year. However, the company did come up short on revenues. The health care sector (unch) finished comfortably behind the broader market.

The consumer staples sector (-0.9%) was the weakest group on Friday, with CVS Health (CVS 68.99, -4.32) leading the retreat. The pharmacy retailer declined 5.9% following unconfirmed Thursday reports that it has made an offer to acquire managed health care company Aetna (AET 173.12, -5.48) for more than $200 per share.

Outside of the equity market, U.S. Treasuries ended the week on a higher note, trimming some of their losses from earlier in the week. The Treasury market began the day in the red, but a Bloomberg report that President Trump is leaning towards appointing Fed Governor Jerome Powell as the next Fed Chair helped turn the tide. The yield on the benchmark 10-yr Treasury note slipped three basis points to 2.42%.

Elsewhere, Spain's Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy invoked emergency powers on Friday in an attempt to restore order after Catalonia's parliament declared independence from the Spanish central government. The Catalonia people voted for independence earlier this month.

Reviewing Friday's economic data, which included the advance third quarter GDP report and the final reading of the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index for October:

Advance third quarter GDP pointed to an expansion of 3.0%, while the Briefing.com consensus expected a reading of 2.4%.
The headline surprise was driven by the change in private inventories, which contributed 0.7 percentage points. Real final sales, which exclude the change in private inventories, decelerated to 2.3% from 2.9% in the second quarter on some soft consumer spending activity.
Granted the hurricanes created some temporary growth headwinds, but when the layers are peeled back, the key takeaway is that U.S. economic activity is proceeding largely at the same ho-hum pace, evidenced by the prior 12-quarter average of 2.4% for real final sales.
The final reading of the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index for October declined to 100.7 (Briefing.com consensus 101.0) from 101.1 in the preliminary reading.
Despite the dip, the index remains at its highest monthly level since the start of 2004 and it stands above 100.0 for only the second time since the end of the record 1990's expansion.

On Monday, investors will receive September Personal Income, Personal Spending, and core PCE Prices--all of which will be released at 8:30 ET.

Nasdaq Composite +24.5% YTD
Dow Jones Industrial Average +18.6% YTD
S&P 500 +15.3% YTD
Russell 2000 +11.1% YTD

Week In Review: Tech Earnings Provide Late Boost

Stocks began the week on a lower note as investors cashed in on last week's record highs, but reclaimed their losses on Friday, thanks to an impressive batch of technology earnings. The major indices finished the week in positive territory, with the Nasdaq, the Dow, and the S&P 500 adding 1.1%, 0.5%, and 0.2%, respectively. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq settled Friday at new all-time highs.

The S&P 500's technology sector (+2.9%) kept the broader market afloat with little help from its peers, easily settling at the top of the sector standings. The group was underpinned by Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOG), and Intel (INTC), which added between 4.8% and 7.4% on Friday after reporting better-than-expected earnings and revenues for the third quarter.

Amazon (AMZN) also surged on Friday, jumping 13.2%, after beating both top and bottom line estimates. The company's positive performance boosted the consumer discretionary sector, which finished the week with a gain of 1.1%.

On the downside, the health care sector (-2.1%) struggled this week, with biotechnology names leading the retreat. Celgene (CELG) showed particular weakness, ending the week lower by 19.1%, after missing revenue estimates for the third quarter and lowering its 2020 long-term financial targets on Thursday.

The consumer staples sector also lagged, moving lower by 1.5%. Within the group, CVS Health (CVS) plunged 9.8% following unconfirmed reports that the pharmacy retailer has made an offer to acquire managed health care company Aetna (AET) for more than $200 per share. Aetna shares ended the week higher by 7.6%.

On the data front, the advance GDP report showed that the U.S. economy increased at annual rate of 3.0% in the third quarter (Briefing.com consensus 2.4%), marking the second straight quarter the annualized rate has been 3.0% or higher. However, the headline number was inflated by a change in inventories, while real final sales decelerated to 2.3% from 2.9% in Q2.

In other words, the U.S. economy is proceeding largely at the same ho-hum pace.

Elsewhere, speculation as to who will become the next Fed Chair continued this week, and it appears increasingly likely that current Fed Chair Janet Yellen will be replaced by either Fed Governor Jerome Powell or Stanford University economist John Taylor. Bloomberg reported on Friday that President Trump is leaning toward Mr. Powell.

Following this week's events, the CME FedWatch Tool places the chances of a December rate hike at 99.9%, up from 93.1% last week.

[BRIEFING.COM] The major U.S. indices trade at their best marks of the day moving into the final stretch. Both the Nasdaq (+2.2%) and the S&P 500 (+0.8%) are on track to end today's session at new record highs.

Investors will receive a heavy dose of economic data next week, starting with the release of September Personal Income, Personal Spending, and core PCE Prices on Monday morning. In addition, the latest FOMC rate decision will cross the wires on Wednesday afternoon, and the October Employment Situation Report will be released on Friday.

As for earnings, investors will have their eyes on Apple's (AAPL 162.60, +5.18) quarterly results, which are scheduled to be released on Thursday afternoon.

Dow: +30.54… | Nasdaq: +141.54… | S&P: +19.93…

NASDAQ Adv/Dec 1482/1098. …NYSE Adv/Dec 1733/1173.

02:30PM ET

[BRIEFING.COM] The major indices continue ticking higher this afternoon, hitting new session highs. The tech-heavy Nasdaq leads its peers with a gain of 2.2%.

Apple (AAPL 163.45, +6.05) is approaching its record high (164.94) this afternoon after announcing that demand for its new iPhone X is "off the charts." The S&P 500's largest company by market cap is up 3.8% in today's session, further contributing to the already strong technology rally; the top-weighted technology sector is up 3.1%. Apple will report earnings next Thursday.

Elsewhere within the sector, Alphabet (GOOG 1029.30, +56.74) and Microsoft (MSFT 84.44, +5.68) are still going strong after beating top and bottom line estimates. Facebook (FB 177.62, +6.99) is also outperforming, adding 4.1%, ahead of next Wednesday's earnings release.

Also of note, recent reports indicate that Spain's Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy has fired the entire Catalan government after the region declared its independence earlier today.

Dow: +39.71… | Nasdaq: +142.96… | S&P: +21.30…

02:00PM ET

[BRIEFING.COM] The major indices continue hovering near their session highs, with the S&P 500 showing a gain of 0.8%.

Two sectors are sitting unchallenged at the top of today's leaderboard--technology (+2.9%) and consumer discretionary (+1.5%)--while the remaining advancers hold modest gains of no more than 0.4%. On the flip side, five sectors are currently trading in the red--financials (-0.1%), industrials (-0.1%), health care (-0.1%), materials (-0.6%), and consumer staples (-1.0%).

In the currency market, the U.S. Dollar Index is up 0.4% at 94.89, extending its week-to-date gain to 1.4%. The greenback has been helped by the ECB's decision on Thursday to extend asset purchases through September 2018, albeit at a slower rate.

Dow: +33.80… | Nasdaq: +143.35… | S&P: +20.52…

NASDAQ Adv/Dec 1547/1072. …NYSE Adv/Dec 1723/1153.

01:30PM ET

[BRIEFING.COM] The major U.S. indices have stalled since our last update, but continue to sit comfortably in positive territory as the Nasdaq soars on strong tech earnings.

A look inside the Dow Jones Industrial Average shows that Intel (INTC 44.36, +3.01), Microsoft (MSFT 84.29, +5.53), & Apple (AAPL 162.59, +5.18) are outperforming. Intel & Microsoft are both seeing notable gains on the heels of their quarterly reports, while Apple is advancing after their newest phone, the iPhone X, sold out in a matter of minutes amid 'off the charts' demand.

Conversely, Merck & Co. (MRK 58.43, -3.56) is the worst-performing Dow component after the company reported mixed third quarter results earlier this morning.

At current levels, the DJIA is poised to end the week with gains of 0.4%.

Dow: +20.55… | Nasdaq: +135.34… | S&P: +19.39…

NASDAQ Adv/Dec 1522/1106. …NYSE Adv/Dec 1738/1147.

01:05PM ET

[BRIEFING.COM] Wall Street has reclaimed its losses for the week following an impressive batch of earnings from the likes of Amazon (AMZN 1101.08, +128.75), Microsoft (MSFT 84.23, +5.47), and Alphabet (GOOG 1036.76, +64.20)--all of which have climbed to new record highs in today's session. Likewise, the tech-heavy Nasdaq (+2.1%) and the S&P 500 (+0.8%) have hit new all-time highs, but the price-weighted Dow (+0.1%) has struggled due to select underperformers.

The three aforementioned companies have played an enormous role in today's rally after reporting better-than-expected earnings and revenues, making up for a rather uninspiring performance from the broader market. Amazon is the strongest of the three, soaring 13.5% above its flat line, but Microsoft and Alphabet sport impressive gains themselves, adding 7.2% and 6.6%, respectively. Dow component Intel (INTC 44.20, +2.85) has also chipped in, climbing 6.9%, after beating both top and bottom line estimates and raising its guidance for the fiscal year.

Unsurprisingly, the S&P 500's technology sector (+2.9%), which houses Microsoft, Alphabet, and Intel, trades at the top of the sector standings by a wide margin. However, the remaining ten groups trade behind the benchmark index.

The energy sector (+0.1%) hasn't been able to take advantage of a surge in the price of crude oil, which is currently up 2.3% at $53.85/bbl, as Chevron (CVX 113.94, -4.50) weighs; the company is down 3.9% despite beating top and bottom line estimates. On a related note, Exxon Mobil (XOM 83.87, +0.40) is up 0.5% after reporting better-than-expected profits.

Similar to Chevron, pharmaceutical giant Merck (MRK 58.62, -3.37) has plunged 5.4%, hitting a fresh 2017 low, despite beating earnings estimates and raising its guidance for the fiscal year. However, the company did come up short on revenues. The health care sector shows a loss of 0.1%.

Elsewhere, U.S. Treasuries are trading higher this afternoon, sending yields lower across the curve; the benchmark 10-yr yield is down two basis points at 2.43%. The bond market had a largely muted reaction to this morning's better-than-expected advance third quarter GDP report (+3.0% actual vs +2.4% Briefing.com consensus), but ticked up from their flat lines after Bloomberg reported that President Trump is leaning towards appointing Jerome Powell as the next Chairman of the Federal Reserve.

Mr. Powell is seen as more dovish in comparison to Stanford University economist John Taylor, who is the other leading candidate.

Reviewing Friday's economic data, which included the advance third quarter GDP report and the final reading of the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index for October:

Advance third quarter GDP pointed to an expansion of 3.0%, while the Briefing.com consensus expected a reading of 2.4%.
The headline surprise was driven by the change in private inventories, which contributed 0.7 percentage points. Real final sales, which exclude the change in private inventories, decelerated to 2.3% from 2.9% in the second quarter on some soft consumer spending activity.
Granted the hurricanes created some temporary growth headwinds, but when the layers are peeled back, the key takeaway is that U.S. economic activity is proceeding largely at the same ho-hum pace, evidenced by the prior 12-quarter average of 2.4% for real final sales.
The final reading of the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index for October declined to 100.7 (Briefing.com consensus 101.0) from 101.1 in the preliminary reading.
Despite the dip, the index remains at its highest monthly level since the start of 2004 and it stands above 100.0 for only the second time since the end of the record 1990's expansion.

Dow: +27.60… | Nasdaq: +134.16… | S&P: +19.78…

12:25PM ET

[BRIEFING.COM] Equity indices have trended sideways over the last 30 minutes of action, keeping near their best levels of the day.

Industrial giant General Electric (GE 20.76, -0.55) is down once again today, dropping another 2.6% to extend its week-to-date loss to 12.9%. The industrial giant has been struggling all year, but has faced increased selling pressure since reporting below-consensus earnings and issuing disappointing guidance last Friday. Recent rumors that the company is considering selling its locomotive division and that it has hired Morgan Stanley to sell assets have also weighed on shares.

The industrial group, which houses GE, is trading a ways behind the broader market this afternoon, hovering at its unchanged mark. For the week, the sector has declined 1.2%, while the S&P 500 has added 0.2%.

[BRIEFING.COM] Both the S&P 500 (+0.7%) and the Nasdaq (+1.9%) have posted record intraday highs in today's session, while the Dow (+0.1%) hovers about 60 points below its record mark.

Dow component Merck (MRK 59.17, -2.82) has shed 4.5% in today's session after delivering a mixed earnings report, which showed better-than-expected earnings, but below-consensus revenues. The pharmaceutical giant is hovering at a fresh 2017 low and is among the weakest components within the S&P 500's health care sector (-0.1%).

Counting the health care space, there are currently five sectors trading in negative territory. The materials (-1.0%) and consumer staples (-0.8%) groups show particular weakness, while the financials (-0.2%) and industrials (-0.1%) groups hover just a step below their unchanged marks.

[BRIEFING.COM] Equity indices have continued ticking higher, sending the major indices to fresh session highs. The S&P 500 is now up 0.7%.

Crude oil has moved sharply higher this morning after hovering near its unchanged mark in early action; WTI crude futures are up 2.2% at $53.78/bbl--which marks their best level in eight months. The S&P 500's energy sector has moved in tandem with the price of the commodity, overcoming early weakness. The group currently sports a gain of 0.5%.

In the bond market, U.S. Treasuries have climbed into positive territory after hanging around their flat lines earlier this morning; the yield on the benchmark 10-yr Treasury note is down three basis points at 2.42%. The recent rally took place after Bloomberg reported that President Trump is leaning towards appointing Jerome Powell as the next Chairman of the Federal Reserve.

Mr. Powell is seen as more dovish in comparison to Stanford University economist John Taylor, who is the other leading candidate.

[BRIEFING.COM] The major averages are hovering at their best marks of the morning, with the S&P 500 showing a gain of 0.5%.

Today's rally has been primarily fueled by the top-weighted technology sector, which is up 2.4% following upbeat earnings from Microsoft (MSFT 84.65, +5.89), Alphabet (GOOG 1034.46, +61.90), and Intel (INTC 43.57, +2.22). The three names currently sport gains between 5.2% and 7.4%.

Amazon (AMZN 1081.10, +108.57) has also been a major contributor, surging 11.2% to a new all-time high, after also beating third quarter estimates, but is one of very few components within the consumer discretionary sector trading in the green. Nonetheless, the consumer discretionary group is up 0.8% due to Amazon's substantial influence.

As for the remaining sectors, the utilities group (+0.7%) exhibits relative strength, but the others trade mostly lower, showing losses between 0.1% and 1.0%.

The stock market looks poised to open Friday's session in positive territory as the S&P 500 futures trade nine points, or 0.4%, above fair value.

Amazon is up 8.8% in pre-market action, while Microsoft and Alphabet hold early gains of 7.4% and 4.5%, respectively. For the year, the three giants sport gains of at least 26.0% apiece.

[BRIEFING.COM] The U.S. equity market claimed a modest victory on Thursday, trimming its loss for the week. Stocks trended sideways for much of the session, but slipped in the final stretch to leave the major indices near the bottom of their narrow trading ranges. The Dow and the S&P 500 added 0.3% and 0.1%, respectively, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq shed 0.1%. The S&P 500 will enter Friday's session with a week-to-date loss of 0.6%.

Investors received another largely positive batch of earnings overnight, with most companies topping expectations. Twitter (TWTR 20.31, +3.17) was one of the most notable post-earnings advancers, rallying 18.5%, after beating earnings estimates and announcing that it could post its first profit ever in the fourth quarter. Similarly, Buffalo Wild Wings (BWLD 120.95, +19.80) soared 19.6% after blowing past profit estimates and raising its earnings guidance for the fiscal year.

Materials showed particular strength on Thursday, sending the S&P 500's materials sector (+1.4%) to the top of the sector standings. Within the group, DowDuPont (DWDP 73.05, +1.96) was among the strongest components, adding 2.8%, after providing upbeat preliminary earnings figures ahead of next week's earnings release.

The heavily-weighted financial sector (+0.6%) also outperformed, helped by the House's vote to pass a budget for fiscal year 2018--the same budget that the Senate passed last week. The budget approval was seen as an important step in the GOP's tax overhaul effort as it allows Republicans to pass a tax reform bill under the reconciliation process, which requires only a simple majority in the Senate vs the typical 60-vote threshold.

While the broader market moved higher on Thursday, the S&P 500's health care sector (-1.0%) struggled from start to finish, keeping the benchmark index's gain in check. Within the group, Celgene (CELG 99.99, -19.57) plunged 16.4% after missing revenue estimates for the third quarter and lowering its 2020 long-term financial targets. The larger biotech industry moved in tandem with Celgene, sending the iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF (IBB 313.98, -7.47) lower by 2.3%.

On a related note, pharmacy names like Walgreens Boot Alliance (WBA 67.11, -2.25) and CVS Health (CVS 73.31, -2.22) dropped 3.2% and 2.9%, respectively, after President Trump declared the nation's opioid crisis a national public health emergency. Reports that Amazon (AMZN 972.43, -0.48) has obtained pharmacy licenses across several states also weighed on retail pharmacy shares.

Also, manged health care giant Aetna (AET 178.60, +18.48) spiked 11.5% in the final minutes of Thursday's session following reports that CVS might be interested in the company.

Elsewhere, the European Central Bank decided to leave interest rates unchanged and announced that it expects to lower its monthly asset purchases to EUR 30 billion from EUR 60 billion in January, as expected. That pace of purchases is expected to continue until at least the end of September 2018.

The euro tumbled 1.4% against the U.S. Dollar to 1.1650 following the ECB's announcement, hitting its lowest level since late July.

In the bond market, U.S. Treasuries ended Thursday on a lower note, with shorter-dated issues showing relative weakness. The benchmark 10-yr yield climbed one basis point to 2.45%, while the 2-yr yield jumped three basis points to 1.63%. Yields move inversely to prices.

Reviewing Thursday's economic data, which included weekly Initial Claims, September Pending Home Sales, the Advance report for International Trade in Goods for September, and the Advance report for Wholesale Inventories for September:

The latest weekly initial jobless claims count totaled 233,000 while the Briefing.com consensus expected a reading of 235,000. Today's tally was above the revised prior week count of 223,000 (from 222,000). As for continuing claims, they declined to 1.893 million from the revised count of 1.896 million (from 1.888 million).
Claims taking procedures continued to be disrupted in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, yet the underlying message in the initial claims data is that it is consistent with a tight labor market.
Pending Home Sales were unchanged in September (0.0%). Today's reading follows an revised 2.8% decrease in August (from -2.6%).
The Advance report for International Trade in Goods for September showed a deficit of $64.1 billion, up from a deficit of $63.3 billion in August.
The Advance report for Wholesale Inventories for September showed an increase of 0.3%. The prior month's reading was revised to +0.8% from +0.9%.

On Friday, investors will receive the advance third quarter GDP report (Briefing.com consensus 2.4%) and the final reading of the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index for October (Briefing.com consensus 101.0). The two reports will cross the wires at 8:30 ET and 10:00 ET, respectively.
