After passing its previous all-time high earlier in the week, markets aren’t sure where to go from here. Stocks are still performing strongly in spite of the inherent risks, but that could change on the drop of a dime. Unemployment claims jumped past 1 million yesterday for the first time in weeks, causing some traders to worry that the job market could be sputtering.

Asian stocks were mostly higher, with Hong Kong’s Hang Seng leading the way with a 1.3% rally. In Europe, stocks were mixed but mostly close to being flat. The Stoxx 600 is currently up a modest 0.1%.

This morning’s featured earnings slate includes John Deere (DE) and Foot Locker (FL).

These stocks are trading actively today.

Deere & Co. (DE)

Deere reported it’s fiscal Q3 earnings this morning and the results didn’t disappoint. The company’s earnings of $2.81 per share more than doubled the consensus estimates of $1.25. Revenues also topped consensus estimates at $8.93 billion, while analysts were only expecting $6.7 billion. However, Deere said it expected sales of agriculture and turf equipment to decline by about 10% in the fiscal year, and construction and forestry equipment are expected to decline 25%.

The Q3 numbers were much better than what Wall Street expected. The double-line beat is pushing DE to a 3.0% pre-market gain.
