Overseas/Overnight Markets
 U.S. stock index futures fell, taking a cue from European and Asian
markets, as worries over global growth prospects and the outcome of
Greece’s private-sector bond swap later this week weigh on sentiment.
There is no U.S. economic data on the docket today.
 European stocks dropped, with banks and resource stocks among the
`largest detractors. A report released this morning showed a 0.3% Q/Q
contraction in the euro-area economy in Q4, confirming an initial estimate
published on February 15. Large declines in investment, exports and
consumer spending were to blame for the overall GDP contraction. Also
weighing on investors was a memo from the Institute of International
Finance that warned that a disorderly default would cause the euro zone
more than 1 trillion euros ($1.36 trillion) in damage, Reuters reported. The
report also stated that a default would likely force Italy and Spain to seek
aid to prevent being engulfed in the region’s debt crisis.
 Private investors that have declared their participation in Greece’s debt
restructuring hold about 20% of the bonds involved in a swap, the creditors’
stering committee said yesterday. The goal of the swap, which runs
through March 8, is to reduce the amount of privately-held Greek debt by
53.5% and help secure Greece’s second rescue package.
 Asian stocks fell sharply, with miners among the top declines, following
global markets lower on growth concerns. The Hang Seng shed 2.2%,
while the Shanghai Composite fell 1.4%. Japan’s Nikkei gave up a more
modest 0.6%.
North American Market Highlights & Headlines
 Aecon Group Inc. (ARE-T) reported a 143% increase in quarterly earnings
on Monday as margins improved on lower costs. Aecon reported EPS of
$0.49, up from $0.20 a year ago. Revenue in the quarter was $790 million,
down from $841 million, and well shy of the $859 million consensus
estimate. Aecon's backlog stood at $2.39 billion at December 31, 2011.

Overseas and Overnight Markets
 U.S. stock index futures are indicating to a marginally lower open as Secretary of State
Rex Tillerson arrives in Moscow amid tensions over Syria. There are no major economic
data scheduled to be released today.
 Most Asian stocks fell overnight as rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East kept
investors nervous. The Nikkei 225 Index fell 0.27% as a stronger yen put pressure on
exporters. The Shanghai Composite Index reversed earlier losses to end up 0.60% while
Hong Kong's Hang Seng index was down 0.72%.
 European stocks are mixed with German and French shares coming under selling
pressure amid rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East while U.K. shares hovered
near three-week highs.Banks are worst performers after U.S. bond yields slipped on
safe-haven demand.
Company Headlines
 Bombardier Inc. (BBDB-T) confirmed plans to roll back Executive Chairman Pierre
Beaudoin’s 2016 compensation and defer payouts for managers including Chief
Executive Officer Alain Bellemare, deciding against additional measures to appease
angry taxpayers over raises that followed $1 billion in public aid. The move comes after
Beaudoin asked the board to reset his compensation as the rise in pay had "become a
distraction" from the company's regular work.
 Qualcomm (QCOM-Q) is countersuing Apple Inc. (AAPL-Q) in a dispute over licensing
fees for mobile technology after being sued by Apple for $1 billion less than three
months ago. Qualcomm said that it filed its answers and counterclaims to the suit,
seeking unspecified damages and to "enjoin Apple from further interference with
Qualcomm's agreements with the companies that manufacture iPhones and iPads for
Apple."
 Whole Foods Market (WFM-Q) jumped nearly 10% on Monday after activist investor
Jana Partners took a nearly 9% stake in the company and suggested it should consider
putting itself up for sale. Whole Foods, a Texas-based chain, has been struggling as
other grocers make inroads into its natural and organics foods business. The company
also has faced deceleration in customer counts and average purchase amounts. Both
trends — combined with overall food price deflation — have contributed to Whole Foods
slashing forecasts and posting same-store sales declines for the past six straight
quarters.

Before the Open April 11 2017

  • 1.  bbbsb Overseas/Overnight Markets  U.S. stock index futures fell, taking a cue from European and Asian markets, as worries over global growth prospects and the outcome of Greece’s private-sector bond swap later this week weigh on sentiment. There is no U.S. economic data on the docket today.  European stocks dropped, with banks and resource stocks among the `largest detractors. A report released this morning showed a 0.3% Q/Q contraction in the euro-area economy in Q4, confirming an initial estimate published on February 15. Large declines in investment, exports and consumer spending were to blame for the overall GDP contraction. Also weighing on investors was a memo from the Institute of International Finance that warned that a disorderly default would cause the euro zone more than 1 trillion euros ($1.36 trillion) in damage, Reuters reported. The report also stated that a default would likely force Italy and Spain to seek aid to prevent being engulfed in the region’s debt crisis.  Private investors that have declared their participation in Greece’s debt restructuring hold about 20% of the bonds involved in a swap, the creditors’ stering committee said yesterday. The goal of the swap, which runs through March 8, is to reduce the amount of privately-held Greek debt by 53.5% and help secure Greece’s second rescue package.  Asian stocks fell sharply, with miners among the top declines, following global markets lower on growth concerns. The Hang Seng shed 2.2%, while the Shanghai Composite fell 1.4%. Japan’s Nikkei gave up a more modest 0.6%. North American Market Highlights & Headlines  Aecon Group Inc. (ARE-T) reported a 143% increase in quarterly earnings on Monday as margins improved on lower costs. Aecon reported EPS of $0.49, up from $0.20 a year ago. Revenue in the quarter was $790 million, down from $841 million, and well shy of the $859 million consensus estimate. Aecon's backlog stood at $2.39 billion at December 31, 2011.

This publication is for distribution to Canadian clients only. Please refer to Appendix A of this report for important disclosure information. Overseas and Overnight Markets  U.S. stock index futures are indicating to a marginally lower open as Secretary of State Rex Tillerson arrives in Moscow amid tensions over Syria. There are no major economic data scheduled to be released today.  Most Asian stocks fell overnight as rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East kept investors nervous. The Nikkei 225 Index fell 0.27% as a stronger yen put pressure on exporters. The Shanghai Composite Index reversed earlier losses to end up 0.60% while Hong Kong's Hang Seng index was down 0.72%.  European stocks are mixed with German and French shares coming under selling pressure amid rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East while U.K. shares hovered near three-week highs.Banks are worst performers after U.S. bond yields slipped on safe-haven demand. Company Headlines  Bombardier Inc. (BBDB-T) confirmed plans to roll back Executive Chairman Pierre Beaudoin’s 2016 compensation and defer payouts for managers including Chief Executive Officer Alain Bellemare, deciding against additional measures to appease angry taxpayers over raises that followed $1 billion in public aid. The move comes after Beaudoin asked the board to reset his compensation as the rise in pay had "become a distraction" from the company's regular work.  Qualcomm (QCOM-Q) is countersuing Apple Inc. (AAPL-Q) in a dispute over licensing fees for mobile technology after being sued by Apple for $1 billion less than three months ago. Qualcomm said that it filed its answers and counterclaims to the suit, seeking unspecified damages and to "enjoin Apple from further interference with Qualcomm's agreements with the companies that manufacture iPhones and iPads for Apple."  Whole Foods Market (WFM-Q) jumped nearly 10% on Monday after activist investor Jana Partners took a nearly 9% stake in the company and suggested it should consider putting itself up for sale. Whole Foods, a Texas-based chain, has been struggling as other grocers make inroads into its natural and organics foods business. The company also has faced deceleration in customer counts and average purchase amounts. Both trends — combined with overall food price deflation — have contributed to Whole Foods slashing forecasts and posting same-store sales declines for the past six straight quarters.
