And INTC earnings tonite. For the most adventerous... MSFT Oct 30 calls trading at 55 cents. If it gaps up to 31 on INTC earnings, its almost a double. Chart looks good... Wants to go up. I have some of those calls, and a lot more Nov calls that I've been buying since it was 29. But now it seems to be solidly holding 30 and wants to go up to new highs. MSFT has tonns of cash and printing more daily.

Just FYI a pretty solid research analyst at a big institution (who, by the way, called the 50bp cut) whose work I follow is forecasting a pause for this next session. Caveat emptor.

I wouldn't be surprised if we rallied into the fed though, but I am not basing my trading on a fed call, either way.
