Summary
US equities opened on a positive note, helped a little by European markets, but also by Chicago PMI and ADP jobs data. The afternoon saw a high of 3386, with some rather fierce cooling into the monthly/Q3 settlement.
Volatility swung from the 25s to 27s in late afternoon, the VIX settling +0.4% to 26.37.
September settles... SPX, m1b
The SPX broke a new historic high of 3588, but swung to 3209, and settling net lower by -137pts (3.9%). I would note the 10MA at 3118, which was very comfortably settled above, as the m/t bullish trend remained intact.
