Last day of the month, S&P up 0.9 percent for the month. End of quarter for Lehman[LEH  Loading...      ()   ]  , Morgan Stanley  [MS  Loading...      ()   ] , and Goldman Sachs[GS  Loading...      ()   ]  .

Dell [DELL  Loading...      ()   ] up 8 percent pre-open on a stronger than expected report. But oil is up, bonds are reversing their recent decline, and other metals like gold and copper are up slightly today, though a modest dollar rally continues.

Art Cashin made a good point yesterday: that the amount of money going out of the bond market seemed to be much greater than the amount of money going into stocks.

Elsewhere:

1) Solar companies, which were killed yesterday as oil dropped, are rallying a bit this morning on fairly strong volume, for solar stocks. Suntech [STP  Loading...      ()   ]   and Yingli Green [YGE  Loading...      ()   ] up 6 percent, LDK Solar [LDK  Loading...      ()   ] up 3 percent.

2) J Crew [JCG  Loading...      ()   ] down 17 percent pre-open, they beat estimates, but guidance for the current quarter and full year is below estimates. JCG cut to sell at Citigroup

3) Tiffany [TIF  Loading...      ()   ] up 4 percent, beat expectations handily ($0.50 vs. $0.41 expected) and guided higher slightly for the full year. It was international that again carried the day: comp store sales in the U.S. were flat (though sales at the New York flagship were up 16 percent due to tourist buying!), sales in Asia Pacific up 4 percent on a constant exchange basis (Japan was weaker than expected), European comp store sales up 12 percent on a constant exchange basis.
