Pre-Market Brief

Good morning. Futures are a touch lower, sp -1pt, we're set to open at 1828. Precious metals are showing significant gains, Gold +$15, Silver +2.7%. It looks to be another victory for the bulls, with a strong weekly gain of 1.8% on the sp'500.

Summary

*Gold is set to open above the 200 day MA, for the first time since Jan'2013. With the miners having also closed above the 200 MA twice this week, it is a very important week for the gold bugs out there.

*Awaiting a trio of econ-data this morning.

Equity bulls should be content with ANY close >sp'1815 (weekly 10MA), and that does appear likely. I certainly can't see a sig' daily decline today.

Notable early mover: UGAZ +5.6%
