Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said his country’s targeted 8% GDP growth rate is within reach this year, indicating he doesn’t see the need for additional stimulus.And then depression set in (not economic, psychological).That’s the driver this morning. In addition, Goldman Sachs downgraded their global growth estimate for 2009 as they said the worldwide recession is worsening. Unemployment claims fell-I think we might be nearing the worst for the employment picture.GM and its auditors expressed doubts over the firm’s ability to survive, which in part will depend on car sales rising next year.Factory orders are out at 9 AM, money supply is out after the close (does anyone remember when that was important?). I believe Treasury Sec’y Geithner is also due to testify at a Congressional hearing on the federal budget.Tomorrow morning is the employment picture for January; it’s supposed to show a drop of about 650K in NFP.
Stocks:A momentum sell short day across the board. Tomorrow could end up being a test of yesterday’s low. In the big picture, I think it will take a move over the late Feb. low at 740 basis ESH to get sentiment back to neutral.
