Our ETF to watch for the day is the Industrial Select Sector SPDR , which will look to summit resistance after investors digest the latest round of manufacturing data. Analysts are expecting for June durable goods orders to have grown by 2.3%, which is a slight deterioration from last month�� reading of 3.7%.
Chart AnalysisConsider XLI�� one-year daily performance chart below. This ETF has been trading higher within a fairly well-defined channel (red lines) since it rebounded off its 200-day moving average (yellow line) in mid-November of 2012. Furthermore, XLI has a tendency to sharply correct down to its lower-support line after grinding along, or breaking above, its upper-resistance boundary, as seen in the first half April this year and most recently in the second half of June. With XLI currently trading right along resistance, we feels that traders can favorably position themselves in anticipation of a pullback by utilizing a tight stop-loss near the recent highs in case the bulls return with little warning�.

Second-quarter revenue dropped 3.8% to $3.53 billion due to weakening hard disk drive (HDD) demand, reflecting the continuous slump in the PC industry. And even though low-cost and reliable HDDs are demanded by the burgeoning cloud storage space, Seagate�� high-margin HDD sales were poorer than expectations. On the flip side, demand for HDDs from consumer electronics, external storage and network-attached storage areas progressed well.

Seagate Technology (STX) has the ability to look for strategic acquisitions that easily synergize with the current operations. As a consequence, Seagate is going to acquire Xyratex, whose shares went up 27.3% on the announcement day and remain at that price level. The deal will help Seagate acquire testing equipment for its hard disk drives (HDD) along with storage systems to analyze and manage network data. It is expected that the deal will close in mid-2014, and add about $500 million or more in revenue in its fiscal year 2015.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Dan Caplinger]
Finally, beyond the Dow, construction equipment company Terex (NYSE: TEX ) put the dampers on the rally with an 11% drop after cutting its forecast for full-year earnings by about $0.50 to $0.60 per share. Facing slowing gains in North America, continued challenges in Europe, and mixed markets around the world, Terex cited weakness in equipment designed for construction, as well as ports. Without a more robust global economic recovery, Terex could be just the first of many companies reporting similar shortfalls as second-quarter earnings season starts in a few weeks.

Small cap stocks Muscle Warfare International (OTCMKTS: MWAR), Portlogic Systems Inc (OTCMKTS: PGSY) and Sterling Consolidated Corp (OTCBB: STCC) were all the subject of a few paid promotions as recently as last week but they sure did not start the new week out right because all were sinking on Monday.

- [By Peter Graham]
Small cap stocks Pulse Network Inc (OTCBB: TPNI), Sterling Consolidated Corp (OTCBB: STCC) and diaDexus, Inc (OTCMKTS: DDXS) have or could start to sizzle for investors. However, I should also mention that two of these stocks have been the subject of paid promotions while a third apparently has not been, and could be the real deal. With that in mind, here is a closer look along with a quick reality check about all three small caps to help you decide whether they are hot or not:
