    GE stock recovers from lows as key CEO presentation nears

    A year ago, Jeff Immelt told investors at an industry conference there was a "mismatch" between the performance of company he led, General Electric Co (GE.N), and its stock price. Immelt, whose departure as chief executive was announced last June, proved prescient but perhaps not in the way he was thinking: GE shares have declined 45 percent since that conference and hit a nearly nine-year low in March. On Wednesday, Immelt's successor as chief executive of the industrial conglomerate, John Flannery, will make the case for GE's investment potential at the same annual Electrical Products Group investor conference in Longboat Key, Florida.

    What Led to the Decline of the ISM New Orders Index in April?

    The Institute of Supply Management (or ISM) publishes a monthly manufacturing (FIDU) report on changes to new orders, supplier deliveries, inventories, production, and employment. The institute constructs 11 indexes using this survey and the ISM new orders index captures the changes in the level of new orders at the producer (RGI) level, which acts as an important forward indicator and thus finds its place in the Conference Board Leading Economic Index (or LEI). The ISM new orders index has an overall weight of 15.9% on the Conference Board Leading Economic Index.

    Falling Weekly Claims Signal Overheating Job Market

    The US Federal Reserve considers the state of the employment market and the level of inflation (TIP) when making monetary policy decisions. Unemployment in the US is at a multi-decade low, leading to a shortage of skilled labor and forcing employers to increase wages to attract employees. The Conference Board Leading Economic Index (or LEI) uses average weekly initial claims as a constituent in its economic model rather than the popular non-farm payrolls because weekly claims, when adjusted for seasonality, provide a more accurate account of underlying economic conditions.

    3M Downgrade: Two Reasons to Be More Cautious

    3M (MMM) is falling on Wednesday, even as the Industrial Select Sector SPDR (XLI) edges up 0.1%, following a bearish note from Jefferies. Analyst Laurence Alexander downgraded 3M to Hold from Buy, and shaved $30 off his price target, to $220, writing that he sees less room for its multiple to expand in a rising-interest-rate environment. Alexander writes that that we are now in a "long late-cycle period where consolidation, bottlenecks, structural improvements in behavior, and a steeper cost curve create opportunities for rallies in upstream and intermediate chemicals where multiples have fallen." The analyst expects early-cycle large cap stocks, such as 3M, to lag.

    Why Delta Air Lines’ Short Interest Has Risen since 1Q18

    As of April 30, the data show that Delta Air Lines’ (DAL) short interest has increased since it announced its 1Q18 earnings. One of the major reasons for the rise in DAL’s short interest is the high price of crude oil. Higher crude oil prices could have an adverse impact on airlines, as it’ll increase their operating costs in a big way, which in turn could negatively affect operating profits.
