Pre-Market Brief

Good morning. Futures are moderately higher, sp +10pts, we're set to open at 2119. USD is bouncing, +0.4% @ DXY 96.10s. Metals are a little lower, Gold -$2. Oil is shaky, -1.3%, as the OPEC meeting looms this Friday.

Summary

*awaiting a wheel barrow of econ-data today.... and don't forget the Fed beige book due at 2pm

The ECB rate decision: no change. A Draghi press conf. is set for 8.30am EST. That will be market moving.. esp' for the currencies, and by default metals/oil
--

So, we're set to open slightly above declining trend/resistance... currently at sp'2115

Like Mon/Tuesday, a break above would surely negate any chance of renewed weakness to the sp'2080s.

Equity bears should be desperate for a pre-market swing back <2115, or this could spiral out of control to the upside. Right now... it not looking good.

Update from a typically loud Oscar



Certainly,  I agree with Mr C. on Gold, the H/S formation, if correct would be highly supportive of Gold falling to the giant $1000 threshold by the early autumn.

Doomer chat, Hunter with Morgan



As ever, make of that... what you will.

Good wishes for Wednesday trading
-

8.16am..  ADP jobs: 201k   vs 165k previous... one of the better data points in recent weeks. Bodes 'okay' for the Friday jobs data.


9.00am..  sp +6pts... we're set to open at resistance of 2115. Bears really need an opening reversal...

..Draghi talking.... its getting a little tiresome already, these press' conferences feel like they last many.... many hours.
