Summary
US equities opened significantly higher, and built rather powerful gains into the afternoon. The mid/late afternoon saw increasing chop, printing 4299, but late day cooling to settle at 4277.
Volatility was ground lower, the VIX settling -7.6% to 32.45. Whilst Thursday will inherently favour the equity bears, I'm suspicious the market will open initially higher... regardless of the exact CPI print.
