Another Indecisive Day in the Stock Market

Markets continue to lack energy, with a mild up day yesterday. Research in Motion (RIM.TO, RIMM) handily beat earnings expectations, but due to lower guidance, the stock sold off in after-hours trading. It will be interesting to see if the stock recovers today or continues to drift downwards. Canadian retail sales fell by 0.8% in April.

Futures this morning are positive along with the DAX, indicating a positive open. The market bias indicators and the market condition scans continue to show neutral signals with bulls and bears at an impasse.
