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 pointing to a flat open as traders focused on a slew of
company earnings and the latest oil inventory data. Major companies scheduled to
report their earnings today include Allergan, GlaxoSmithKline, Time Warner and
Prudential Financial.
 Asian stocks ended mixed as solid corporate earnings results helped offset investor
concerns over political risks in Europe and the United States. The Shanghai Composite
Index and Hang Seng Index closed near their 1 month highs led by financials stocks
while the Nikkei 225 was up 0.51%.
 European stocks are mixed as investors digested a slew of corporate earnings results
and the euro extended losses. Political uncertainty in Europe and America continues to
dominate markets with investors rushing for gold and pressure mounting on the euro.
Company Headlines
 BlackBerry Ltd.(BB-T) is opening up some of its secure messaging and file sharing
technology for developers to use in building apps, creating a new revenue stream for the
company as it works to boost sales. The Waterloo, Ontario-based company said the
software development kit it is releasing this month will include tools for building chat
apps. BlackBerry joins a crew of companies already offering similar services
including Twilio Inc., Bandwidth.com Inc., Nexmo Inc. and Plivo. The key differentiator
for BlackBerry though, will be its reputation for security.
 Dow Chemical Co. (DOW-N) and DuPont Co. have offered to sell businesses to gain
approval from the European Union’s antitrust watchdog for their tie-up. The
merger, announced in December 2015, would unite the two giants, creating a business
with a combined market capitalization of roughly US$120 billion, before splitting into
three separate companies. It has faced delays as antitrust regulators sought reams of
information concerning the companies’ competing businesses in insecticides,
weedkillers and crop seeds. The companies have offered to dispose of a portion of
DuPont’s crop protection business and associated research and development, as well as
Dow’s acid copolymers and ionomers business.
 Sanofi SA (SNY-N) has addressed all the manufacturing deficiencies at the French
plant where its new, promising rheumatoid arthritis treatment will be produced. In
October, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration rejected sarilumab, a treatment being
developed jointly by Sanofi and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc., over deficiencies
found at the plant. The plant in Normandy, northern France, will also manufacture
Dupilumab, a new treatment for severe forms of eczema that is slated for U.S. regulatory
approval this year

Before the open february 8 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.

Overseas and Overnight Markets  U.S. stock index futures are pointing to a flat open as traders focused on a slew of company earnings and the latest oil inventory data. Major companies scheduled to report their earnings today include Allergan, GlaxoSmithKline, Time Warner and Prudential Financial.  Asian stocks ended mixed as solid corporate earnings results helped offset investor concerns over political risks in Europe and the United States. The Shanghai Composite Index and Hang Seng Index closed near their 1 month highs led by financials stocks while the Nikkei 225 was up 0.51%.  European stocks are mixed as investors digested a slew of corporate earnings results and the euro extended losses. Political uncertainty in Europe and America continues to dominate markets with investors rushing for gold and pressure mounting on the euro. Company Headlines  BlackBerry Ltd.(BB-T) is opening up some of its secure messaging and file sharing technology for developers to use in building apps, creating a new revenue stream for the company as it works to boost sales. The Waterloo, Ontario-based company said the software development kit it is releasing this month will include tools for building chat apps. BlackBerry joins a crew of companies already offering similar services including Twilio Inc., Bandwidth.com Inc., Nexmo Inc. and Plivo. The key differentiator for BlackBerry though, will be its reputation for security.  Dow Chemical Co. (DOW-N) and DuPont Co. have offered to sell businesses to gain approval from the European Union’s antitrust watchdog for their tie-up. The merger, announced in December 2015, would unite the two giants, creating a business with a combined market capitalization of roughly US$120 billion, before splitting into three separate companies. It has faced delays as antitrust regulators sought reams of information concerning the companies’ competing businesses in insecticides, weedkillers and crop seeds. The companies have offered to dispose of a portion of DuPont’s crop protection business and associated research and development, as well as Dow’s acid copolymers and ionomers business.  Sanofi SA (SNY-N) has addressed all the manufacturing deficiencies at the French plant where its new, promising rheumatoid arthritis treatment will be produced. In October, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration rejected sarilumab, a treatment being developed jointly by Sanofi and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc., over deficiencies found at the plant. The plant in Normandy, northern France, will also manufacture Dupilumab, a new treatment for severe forms of eczema that is slated for U.S. regulatory approval this year Sources: Marketwatch, Bloomberg, The Canadian Press, WSJ, Globe and Mail, Financial Post, NYT, FactSet,Thomson Reuters, StreetAccount, CNBC, RTT News) February 8, 2017
