RE:Looking weak, no surprisebtw, just to clarify I mention BBD but in reference to ATZ. In this market, even earnings that beat are selling off.

Not until the FED loosens the noose around its rate tighening will the market be freed to run. Let's see what Powell says today. A 1/2 bp is baked in but it's the language that matters. Is a pause near or is he still banging the drum that "pain is coming" and he "will do whatever it takes". Not the thing investors want right now.
