 | Eventually, it always stops raining. And as you stare at the sea of red on your screen, hoping to turn the vast surfeit of pain into some opportunity for profit, remember these simple words: the past is prologue, and future is where we look to find Fast Money. And fortunately, next week will provide us with plenty of opportunities to do just that. We begin with earnings, where tech and financial names should dominate the tape. Of particular importance will be Citigroup and Merrill results, in addition to JPMorgan and PNC. The large money-center banks and brokers have hemorrhaged billions in market cap as they became engulfed in the mortgage meltdown. But is there more to come? The Fast Money will be watching (also worth noting: this will be the first earnings quarter for Pandit and Thain since taking the reins at Citi and Merrill). Tech names to watch include Intel and IBM and Apple. Chip names have been hammered this quarter by a series of analysts downgrades. Now we get to see if these guys know what they're talking about. Viewer favorite Apple is starting its Macworld conference on Monday. While few are expecting any iPhone-like devices, you can never count Jobs out. Some important economic news too. Key inflation data will hit the tape when the government releases its CPI and PPI figures. To what extent will these figures tie the Fed's hands? The Fast Money will be watching. Earnings, conferences, key economic data. Key ingredients, if you will, for some money-making opportunities. And we'll try to do that all next week. Before we do, a quick programming note. And speaking of money-making opportunities, next week we will celebrate a whole year of them. I'm talking about the broadcasting event of the year. No, not the Super Bowl. I'm talking about one year of Fast Money. That's Tuesday, in our regular time slots. Who's celebrating this momentous occasion with us? you ask. Just the world's most rapacious capitalist. You might have heard of him: Carl Icahn. And that Governor guy too - Eliot Spitzer. He's good too. Don't want to give it all away, and trust me, there's plenty to reveal. You just have to tune inRemember, an open market, even a bad one, is a market in which you can make money. We'll see you then..
