As if the bulls needed any more help, Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) (and all tech stocks) were roaring after hours:
The /NQ popped up over 50 points on the news, meaning that about 1250 points have been added to the Nasdaq 100 since just Jan. 6!
Texas Instruments (NASDAQ:TXN) also reported, but it’s a nothing-burger so far.
Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF) is sinking a bit.
And Intuitive Surgical Inc (NASDAQ:ISRG) is also somewhat weaker.
All in all, yet another shit sandwich served up to the handful of surviving bears. As I’ve said, the fun part of the bear market ended abruptly last Jun. 16.
