Summary
US equities opened in minor chop mode, but saw an early swing lower. Yet... all the bears could muster was a brief foray to 3813, before a rebound to 3846. The afternoon saw renewed weakness, but broadly... the price action was subdued, and outright tedious. More a case of 'post Christmas chop' than anything.
Volatility remained relatively subdued, the VIX settling +3.7% to 21.65.
