10am update - opening chop

US equities open in minor chop mode, if leaning on the weaker side. VIX 14/15s is offering the bears very little. WTIC $75.89, with Natgas $4.00.

Summary

Subscriber note... sorry, as I merely await my server admin.
In the meantime... back here... my old haunting ground.

S/t equity momentum has turned negative, as the setup leans weak.

Yours truly is mostly just watching SMR, and hoping it gets knocked to 22/21s by early next week. I'm guessing I'll do nothing until next Monday.

notable stock: MU


Dragged down by SK Hynix... whose earnings were fine, but guidance was 'uncertain'.

notable stock: AAPL

 

 

Goldman, buy, 286>280
The stock is clearly building a floor from the 200dma.
The only threat is a brief foray under, if the SPX cools to 6000 or 5900.

I'd like the 22/21s... but that isn't in range today.

Post earnings depression...
