The Signal and The Noise
After IBM (IBM) sent shudders through the tech sector with last week's warning, biggies ranging from Texas Instruments (TXN) and EMC (EMC) have made reassuring comments this week. Yahoo!'s report seems to keep that trend going, at least for now.
Yahoo!'s strong quarter bodes well for Google's(GOOG) earnings report due Thursday, but it's unclear whether the strength seen in the Internet portal will translate into good news for e-commerce companies such as eBay(EBAY), which reports Wednesday, and Amazon.com(AMZN), slated for its earnings next week. After rising 67 cents in regular trading Tuesday, Yahoo! recently added $1.44 in postclose action to $34.66. Google was trading more than 4% above its Tuesday close of $191.40, and eBay was 2.6% above its Tuesday close of $32.17.TheStreet Premium Services
