10am update - opening weakness

US equities are moderately lower, and with the failed break/hold above resistance, it would seem the low sp'2080s will be hit before the weekend. USD has recovered from early lows, -0.1% @ DXY 95.40s. Metals are weak, Gold -$7, with Silver -1.7%. Oil is similarly weak, -1.8%.

GLD, daily



Summary

*metals are continuing to perform particularly badly, considering the weak USD.

VIX is displaying only a little market concern..  equity bears are going to need to see the 15s today.. to offer hope of further downside tomorrow.

... awaiting a break of the 2099 double low.
--

notable weakness, copper miners, FCX/TCK, both lower by -2%

10.02am.. opening black-fail candle on the VIX...... urghhh....



What a lousy fail for the bears.
-

*IMF suggest US Fed delay any rate rises until next year. Was that a mere suggestion.. or an order? Hmmm


10.15am.. It remains a mess.. with a clear reversal...  but seriously.. who the hell would be buying right now?

Oh yeah.. share buybacks and central banks.

Seeking VIX 15s... that will be the sign.
