This week, the focus will shift from banks to consumer spending.

First-quarter earnings figures are expected later this week from Wal-
Mart Stores Inc., Macy's Inc. and other retailers and the Commerce
Department reports retail sales for April.

Macy's reports first-quarter results Wednesday, while Wal-Mart will
announce its quarterly results on Thursday.

Consumer spending accounts for more than two-third of economic
activity. Upbeat outlooks from key retailers could give investors
another reason to jump into the market.

Retail sales slump, fell for a second straight month in April, pulled
down by sluggish gasoline and electronic goods purchases。
说明今年第一季度消费者信心仍然很差，今天市场会受到影响。

My TA shows it's the entry point of QID to short tech. Current value
is $39.4. The first confirmation point is 43, and the second is 45 to
break out. Just share ideas with you guys.

Do you mean you expect MKT down the week of May 18th, so you long qid? Thank you for advise.

QIDis a good tool for short。两种可能：
1） SPX 先拉回910以上，然后down。
2） SPX不拉回，今天直接去探780，除非有坏消息，否则在780应该有比较强的支撑。

说错了，不是今天去探780....
