Monday
It may be a short trading week, but plenty of big companies will deliver their quarterly results. Hewlett-Packard
Come to think of it, nothing goes down with a hearty feast like an HP laptop on the table.
Tuesday
We may as well stick to the Thanksgiving dining feast. Hormel
Analysts see Hormel and Heinz going in different directions. Wall Street expects Heinz's profit to slip to $0.70 a share, after the company posted net income of $0.87 a share a year earlier. For Hormel, the pros see earnings climbing 36% to $0.68 a share.
If the Thanksgiving meal happens to take place during one of the three NFL games, there's no need to get cranberry sauce on your shirt as you run from the dining room to the living room. TiVo
TiVo also will post its third-quarter financials Tuesday. Analysts see a small deficit for the quarter, though it would be the company's widest loss in nearly two years.
Wednesday
Heaven help you if you ever decide to serve a bejeweled turkey, but it's the best segue I can think of to get to Wednesday's earnings release from Tiffany
Thursday
Happy Thanksgiving! The market is closed in observation of the holiday. You would probably be too full to trade anyway.
Friday
Black Friday kicks off the start of the holiday shopping season. Between shoppers getting up at the crack of dawn to land door-buster deals and the inevitable numbers about how shoppers are spending this year, the circus begins.
Until next week, I remain,
