11am update - continuing weakness

US equities are lower, but nothing 'significant yet'. Any break <sp'1860, will offer the best bear case of a gap zone fill around 1845. Metals are holding moderate gains, Gold +$8. VIX is higher by 8%, but that amounts to the 14.40s - not exactly 'market fear'.

We're now at the typical turn/floor time of 11am..so lets see if the bull maniacs can turn this around, and battle back into the 1870s by 1pm or so.
