Summary
Choppy action into the early afternoon.
Seeking market to level out in the 2000/1995 zone by 2.30pm.. and then up into the close.
--
Notable weakness, AMZN -2.1%....
Strength: oil/gas drillers, SDRL/RIG +5% or so. If oil is set for a major multi-month bounce..to the low $70s.. then drillers are going to soar into early spring.
1.16pm.. Hmm... the latest micro down wave is a little more strong than expected.
Regardless... the Yellen is coming tomorrow afternoon.... bears beware.
1.35pm... sure is one hell of a volatile market. As ever.. for the big money... trading stops are a must.
Notable weakness, Alcoa (AA) -2.1%.. although I'm broadly bullish on that one... for next yr.
