Summary
A relatively quiet day of minor weak chop..and there really isn't much to add.
The only moves of note were in Oil/Gas.
Other than that...its now a case of waiting to see what the ECB decide upon tomorrow morning (due around 7am EST).

Meanwhile.. in Iceland... (link subject to change... eventually)
The Bardarbunga issue remains a major one for months ahead for all those in NW Europe, but for now, its merely a long fissure, rather than an explosive volcano.
This is bullish land/resource sector..yes?

more later.. on the VIX
