2pm update - minor weakness

Equities remain a touch weak, although even a daily close <sp'2090 looks difficult. VIX is not reflecting any market concern, -1% in the 15.30s. Metals are melting lower, Gold -$3. Oil remains extremely volatile, -0.4%... but that is a full 4% above the morning low.

Summary

*note the opening VIX candle of the last two days, the black-fail type...   VIX still failing to display any real power

Frankly, its day'3 of tedium. I'm real tired of it.

Even sporadic headlines about Greece are doing virtually nothing to rattle the mainstream.

If Greece leaves the Euro/EU on a Sunday night, are we to expect futures +2%? Is that really what we're facing?
--

In any case... 2hrs left of the day, and price action will likely remain muted.

Notable weakness: GDX -1.9%, pressured by underlying weakness in the metals.
