Equities got a lift at the open from strong U.S. retail sales and the mixed Eurozone GDP data. However, the strength did not extend into the afternoon as the major indices slowly came off their highs and settled near session lows. Another day of thin volume contributed to a narrow intraday range as the S&P 500 drifted to a flat finish.
Today after the close the following companies reported earnings: SSRX, BOBE, ENG, FFN, JKHY, JDSU, KITD, MYGN, PAAS, PLAB, SHOR, TRQ
