So.. we're lower, and now its a case (as ever) as to what degree of latter day recovery we will see. Clearly, a net gain is going to be difficult... not least since its opex.
VIX is clearly at resistance on the hourly cycle, it will be difficult to break/hold above 14.30.

notable strength: GE +0.8%.. after reasonable earnings.
Perhaps most bizarre... NFLX continues to climb, +2.3% @ $575.
