Initial market declines are failing to hold, and bears are somewhat 'on the run' again. We could easily close green, and the sp'1570s remain viable at any point. USD is holding opening gains of 0.4%. Oil is moderately lower, Gold is higher, and Silver has seen a strong opening reversal.

Summary
So..market is trying to battle back upward..as I feared. VIX is also a tell, black opening candle on the hourly charts, thats never a good thing to see in bear land.
No point shorting the market here..ahead of a long weekend.
