US equities continue to see minor churn, with notable weakness in the R2K/Nasdaq. Yet...the market did break another set of new highs today, and the broader trend is unquestionably still to the upside. Metals are starting to slide..Gold -$4.

Summary
*I remain long, via a small index block, will likely hold overnight.

For me, the only issue is whether the sp' can manage a daily close in the sp'1900s..not that it is necessary today.
A new high is a new high....(ohh gods, am I really starting to sound like Oscar Carboni?).

Notable strength (my favourite miner)... FCX +1.9%, in the $35.50s.
FCX, weekly
Looks very powerful on the weekly charts.
2.42pm..upside melt...again...a close in the 1900s..looks very viable.
I see a few out there talking about a sig' drop in equities in the immediate term...and I simply am bemused at that...considering ALL cycles are currently bullish.
