With the caution that this is inherently a very volatile set of numbers - especially in July when seasonal swings are huge - the reported results were significantly softer than expected just about across the board.

Electronic Arts is up 40 percent since the company reported second-quarter results on July 25. Though this has occurred faster than we expected, we are confident that there is still plenty of room for appreciation as we approach the Oct. 27 launch of PlayStation 2.

First-quarter results are now expected to be even softer than previously thought, and the year will be even more back-end loaded than we had forecasted, so the results are disappointing.

The problem with the November employment numbers is hiring for the holiday season. It's hard to get a gauge of what it's going to be. They do a seasonal adjustment to the number to account for that, but the seasonal adjustment causes wider swings. And this year Thanksgiving came later in the month, so hiring might have started after the November data was collected.

Bear in mind this survey is always more volatile than the ISM, and there may be an outsized July 4 long weekend effect, too. But these are bad numbers.

July sales were weaker than expected. Summer can be a volatile season for retailers but I am a little surprised by the weakness in apparel. I'll be keeping an eye on discretionary spending going forward.

With unemployment at a 30-year low and the short-term Conference Board forecast projecting favorable labor market conditions, confidence is expected to remain strong through the summer. Volatile financial markets and interest rate hikes are not expected to have a significant impact.

The figures are significantly better than expected and may call into question whether the MPC will raise interest rates at its July meeting. Clearly there are no inflationary pressures in the near term.

In January, April and July, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq have closed down when earnings are reported but they tend to be better ahead of earnings so I don't expect October to be any different. It's a very volatile market and things shift very quickly but the expectations are just so high ahead of earnings.

Overall, (Best Buy) reported solid fourth-quarter results, although the bottom line was not as strong as the 'whisper' numbers.

On balance [the numbers] were benign again, although slightly worse than what we expected because of volatile items such as food prices. The underlying picture is still pretty comfortable.
