Monday chop

US equity indexes mostly closed a little weak, SPX -3pts (0.1%) at 4226. Nasdaq comp' +0.5%. Dow -0.4%. The Transports settled -0.2%.

SPX - daily5

VIX - daily3

Summary

It was a day of considerable minor chop. Volatility was naturally subdued, the VIX settling u/c at 16.42. Price action can only get more dynamic from here, right?

A trio of polls...


Almost two thirds expect a straight run to new historic highs... which is clearly viable within the near term.


Two thirds expect core (ex' food/energy) CPI to go no higher than 6%. That seems overly conservative, considering things like Lumber, oil, and copper.


Just under a third of you expect the fed to being tapering QE before year end.
