Summary

.. and another crazy week in the twisted casino comes to a close.

Perhaps the following typifies today's nonsense...

2 cheerleaders, an exec, and a duck

Situation normal. Bullish.

After the Thursday afternoon spike-floor candles I thought I was bold in calling for the sp'2070s today. Yet.. with Draghi talking the Euro down, things spiralled through resistance of 2080.

It was a very bizarre end to the week... but then.. the underlying upside pressure was always to the upside.

*thanks for the many comments this week, it is always good to hear from some of you.

Have a good weekend
