One stock to keep an eye on today is a Groupon Inc. (NASDAQ:GRPN). I created a special report on this stock two days ago and you can read that report right here.
While Groupon beat earnings on the top line, they more or less admitted that their business plan is not sustainable. The problem for Groupon is that merchants/companies are not renewing to continue their service because it just doesn't work for businesses.
Sooner or later, Groupon Inc. (NASDAQ:GRPN) will run out of merchants to sign up and promote. With this stock down over 12% in the pre-market, I expect Groupon to be under pressure today.
There is one more clue that you may want to look at to see just how unfocused this company really is. Check out this major Groupon PR blunder for Presidents' Day.

I have never understood companies using coupons for deep discounts on their goods and services.
It was thought by them , that it would expose their business to new people from which new steady customers would result.
It does not work, people use the coupon and don't return, business does not make any money on them. The coupon people move on to the next coupon deal.
I have seen "Groupons" modus operandi in many forms...IT DOES NOT WORK FOR BUSINESS.
