Good morning!
Dollar way down (97.22) so that's helping to boost things a bit - might not last.
Dow has been all over the place this morning.
Oil calming already.
Cell prices/StJ - It's amazing all the ways they find to rip off consumers under "Capitalism" while "Cocialism" tends to keep costs under control. It's the exact opposite of what they tell you - over and over and over again...
GE/Albo - Stop, you'll make me want to play them again!
FTR catching some bids ahead of earnings:
What Our Model Says
Our proven model shows that Frontier Communications is likely to beat earnings this quarter as it has the two key components. A stock needs to have both a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) for this to happen. This is exactly the case here as you will see below:
Earnings ESP: Frontier Communications’ Earnings ESP, which represents the difference between the Most Accurate Estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate, is +55.80% as the former is pegged at a loss of 20 cents and the latter at a loss of 45 cents. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.

Zacks Rank: Frontier Communications currently has a Zacks Rank #3. This increases the predictive power of ESP.
Note that we caution against stocks with a Zacks Rank #4 or 5 (Sell-rated) going into the earnings announcement, especially when the company is seeing a negative estimate revisions momentum.
Factors at Play
In January 2019, Frontier Communications completed the sale of 100 wireless communication towers primarily in Connecticut, New York, and California for approximately $80 million.
