Summary
US equities were leaning weak in pre-market, and then the jobs data was released...
Equities took a further step lower, as the market saw 'good news as bad news'. Even the mainstream cheerleader hacks were rather embarrassed, as equities spiraled.
--
US equities opened significantly lower, but there was a strong recovery from an early low of sp'4128, with indexes turning positive by around 11am. The afternoon saw a secondary wave lower to 4123, as s/t momentum turned negative. Despite net daily declines, that still made for a distinctly net bullish week.
Volatility was subdued, the VIX settling -2.1% to 18.33.
