Summary

US equities opened on a positive note, but all the bulls could muster was sp'3323. From there, price slid into the mid afternoon, and spiraling into the close. For the bulls... it was a major midweek failure, and a reminder that the market remains s/t broken from 3588.

 


It was just another day for the CEO of Print Central - Powell

Volatility picked up, the VIX settling +6.4% to 28.58. Tomorrow is a Thursday, and that will inherently favour the equity bears, as a test of m/t rising supports - around 3100, is very much on the menu.
