  • Unknown FRIDAY, MAY 05, 2017
    “Don’t be afraid to change. You may lose something good but you may gain something better.” - Unknown FRIDAY, MAY 05, 2017 Morning Summary: Stock remain near their all-time highs. The Nasdaq is up over +15% year-to-date with the S&P 500 up over +7%. Crude oil on the other hand is trading at multi-month lows and is now down almost -20% year-to-date as U.S. production levels are nearing this of top producers such as Saudi Arabia and Russia. U.S. crude production now sits at around 9.29 million barrels a day, highest since the summer of 2015. With gas- oline demand lower and strong supplies there’s reason to believe prices at the pump may pullback in the next week or two. Today’s economic highlight will be the April Employment Report, which is expected to show U.S. employers added +175,000 to +185,000 new jobs with the unemployment rate ticking up slightly to 4.6% from a previous 4.5%. Keep in mind that March payrolls only grew by 98,000, a disappointing number that many ana- lysts attributed to temporary seasonal factors. If hiring does not indeed pick up from last month’s level, it could raise some concerns about a softening economy. Average hourly earnings and the participation rate will also be an important part of the overall equation. If both are increasing, it would send a signal that the job market may be close to full em- ployment, meaning adding new jobs is growing increasingly more difficult.

  • 250000 Pat Day Mile Presented by LG&E and KU
    $250,000 Pat Day Mile Presented by LG&E and KU (Grade III) 92nd Running – Saturday, May 7, 2016 (Kentucky Derby Day) 3-Year-Olds at One Mile on Dirt at Churchill Downs Stakes Record – 1:34.18, Competitive Edge (2015) Top Beyer Speed Figure – 112, Richter Scale (1997) Average Winning Beyer Speed Figure (since 1992) – 99.9 (2,398/24) Name Origin: Formerly known as the Derby Trial, the one-mile race for 3-year-olds was moved from Opening Night to Kentucky Derby Day and renamed the Pat Day Mile in 2015 to honor Churchill Downs’ all-time leading jockey Pat Day. Day, enshrined in the National Museum of Racing’s Hall of Fame in 2005, won a record 2,482 races at Churchill Downs, including 156 stakes, from 1980-2005. None was more memorable than his triumph aboard W.C. Partee’s Lil E. Tee in the 1992 Kentucky Derby. He rode in a record 21 consecutive renewals of the Kentucky Derby, a streak that ended when hip surgery forced him to miss the 2005 “Run for the Roses.” Day’s Triple Crown résumé also included five wins in the Preakness Stakes – one short of Eddie Arcaro’s record – and three victories in the Belmont Stakes. His 8,803 career wins rank fourth all-time and his mounts that earned $297,914,839 rank second. During his career Day lead the nation in wins six times (1982-84, ’86, and ’90-91). His most prolific single day came on Sept. 13, 1989, when Day set a North American record by winning eight races from nine mounts at Arlington Park.
