$GLW $GE $MARK $INFI $PTN and 1 bonus stock
The focus this week turns back to the U.S. consumer after President Trump signed the massive tax reform bill. Channel checks in the retail sector have blazed hot for most of the holiday season, leading some analysts to push estimates higher on major players Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT), Target (NYSE:TGT) and Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) - as well as on dollar store chains Dollar General (NYSE:DG), Five Below (NASDAQ:FIVE) and Dollar Tree (NASDAQ:DLTR). While it's a very quiet week ahead for corporate events and earnings reports in front of the new year, that's probably not going to be the case for Bitcoin and crypto traders looking for a breather. The Bitcoin Investment Trust (OTCQX:GBTC) closed up 12% on Friday to $1,990, but was down more than 40% for the week.

**Automobile watch: **Auto shows are scheduled next week in Indianapolis and San Diego, just a few weeks ahead of the monster Detroit show. As the EV and mobility reset in the industry continues to go mainstream, total 2018 sales are expected to moderate per forecasts from Edmunds and IHS Markit. EVs are seen accounting for about 4% of U.S. sales next year, a slice that Ford (NYSE:F), General Motors (NYSE:GM), Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), Volkswagen (OTCPK:VLKAY), Toyota (NYSE:TM), Nissan (OTCPK:NSANY), BMW (OTCPK:BMWYY) and Mercedes-Benz (OTCPK:DDAIF) all have their eyes on.
