11am update - market looks vulnerable

Despite breaking a new historic high on the Dow, the sp'500 failed to back it up.. and there remains a real threat of weakness for the rest of the week. Metals remain weak, but are bouncing from the lows, Gold -$17.

Summary

*note the opening 'hollow red' reversal candle on the VIX
--

The new high in the Dow is important to recognise, but the broader market... looks tired.

The VIX looks set to turn positive... with a net daily gain.  the 15s would be useful... 16s would be far more so!

11.05am... Notable strength, energy stocks... DVN +9.5% (post earnings)..  CHK +6.0%

VIX still -1.7%.. but I'd be surprised if we don't see it turn green.


11.37am.. VIX turns green....
