Currently none of the 14 markets actively trading markets (the Nikkei is closed for Golden Week, which is a collection of four holidays spread over a one week period) that we track are positive and the cumulative average return on the group stands at a minus 1.22 percent. Turning to the United Kingdom, the headline index of consumer confidence rose to a minus 2 in April from minus 3 in March, this according to a survey published today by Martin Hamblin GfK. It was the first rise since January, but the index remains below its five-year average of zero. The rise was just beneath expectations for a minus 1 reading. Before the start of regular trade today, we get hit with a couple of key pieces of economic data. The Advance First Quarter Gross Domestic Product for the first quarter is expected to rise to a plus 5.0 percent versus the fourth quarter's final booking of a 4.1 percent advance. As we mentioned yesterday, you will want to keep an eye on the PCE (personal consumption expenditures)- Price deflator, an indication of inflation. A sharp rise here could well further spook an already apprehensive market. During the same time the First Quarter Employment Cost Index is expected to have advanced by 0.9 percent in the first quarter. The cost of hiring and retaining an employee rose by 0.7 percent in the fourth quarter. And speaking of employees, Initial Jobless Claims for the week ending April 24 are expected to have declined by 10,000 following the prior week's 9,000 drop-off.

One look at the company's news reveals two key reasons for their bullishness. First, there's the speculation-turned-reality of a huge $8 per share dividend payout in mid- May. Second, MGM is currently subject to fierce takeover speculation on Wall Street. One suitor is Sony, who has submitted a "letter of acquisition interest." Although there's no official comment yet, sources say a $5 billion deal is being considered, which would include debt and the dividend payments. With a motion picture library of around 4,200 titles, MGM would represent a major acquisition for any successful bidder. Interestingly, another potential suitor could be Comcast. After shelving its bid for Disney on Wednesday, the Philadelphia-based cable company could turn its attention to MGM. Time-Warner has also expressed an interest in MGM. For MGM investors, including those at the Profit Hog, this is excellent news, as stiff competition will likely drive the share price higher. In fact, it's already happening. From a price of $16.20 as recently as March 15, MGM closed Wednesday at $21.06 - a gain of 30%. Profit Hog investors are up 20% since buying at $17.50 on March 16.
