2pm update - minor weak chop

Equity indexes are seeing some weak chop, with the VIX having turned positive. Metals remain notably weak, with Gold having swung from an earlier high of +$9 to -$2. Oil is building declines... now -1.8%. A weekly close <$50 remains very viable.

Summary

*every little rally on the metals is being sold into. Weekly/monthly cycles remain broadly bearish into the summer.
--

So.. a touch of equity weakness.. and most indexes look set to close either flat... or a little lower. Clearly... no sig' decline today... but perhaps the market is saving that for tomorrow.

Notable weakness: AA, -2.1%.... merely uglier by the hour.

Bonus chart...

The horror continues... for the toxic wood company.
