Microsoft earning after the close today

The US stocks are opening in the red as traders can't ignore the surprise Netflix numbers. That stock is down -9.5% which is a big loss but still off post close overnight lows. Microsoft earnings are after the close and will be another (bigger?) barometer for the market.

Nevertheless, the intial reaction is back up and losses are being retraced.
