US equity indexes have clawed back almost all of the opening declines, but remain very choppy, and broadly weak. Latter day weakness seems highly probable, with a VIX - currently in the 25s, set to claw back into the low 30s.

Summary
*the recent wave is arguably a sub'4 ABC 'bounce'... nothing more... with a sub'5... probably down to 1815/00 sometime tomorrow.
Indeed, I'd look for Friday as a somewhat decisive turn, with net daily gains...maybe a close in the 1830/40s.

So, we've even seen the sp' turn briefly higher to a high of 1867, but much like almost every day across the last few weeks, latter day weakness seems likely.
Notable gain: CHK, +14%, on an asset sale... although it does little to negate the collapse from the summer.
