12pm update - still tedious

US equities remain in a state of micro chop. The only notable thing in the past few days is that the sp'500 has not broken another new high (>2119). Metals are holding gains, Gold +$8. Oil has turned negative, -0.2%. VIX remains in cooling mode, -2% in the 13.60s.

Summary

Little to add.

Utterly tedious week... and I know I'm not the only one feeling that way.
