Good morning! APPL earnings....

S&P futures vs fair value: -2.9. Nasdaq futures vs fair value: -7.5.
The cash market is set to open lower today, as a disappointing fiscal Q4 earnings report from Apple Computer (AAPL) and oil's extended moment gives traders reason to continue selling action. APPL shares have plunged over 8% during early trading after the tech giant reported less-than expected revenues ($3.68 bln vs. the $3.74 consensus) and fewer-than-expected iPod shipments (6.45 mln vs. the 7.45 mln consensus). The company did, however, beat EPS expectations by a penny, delivering $0.38 per share, and issued upside fiscal Q1 EPS and revenue guidance. Separately, crude is up 0.5% to $63.83/bbl today.
