Anything the suggests strong but sustainable economic growth is good for stocks. Anything that suggests inflation is bad.

Examples of good news:

CPI lower than expected
Retail sales higher than expected
New Home Sales higher than expected

Examples of bad news:

PPI higher than expected
Durable goods orders lower than expected
Existing home sales lower than expected
Nice Notouch, do you know of any site or literature where I can inform my self in detail about the interpretation of each economic indicator and their expected outcomes depending on +/- numbers... (maybe a pdf) It makes great sense that + or - numbers should have an expected outcome... thanks for the feedback... Walter.
