US equities closed significantly higher, sp +28pts @ 2116. The two
leaders - Trans/R2K, settled higher by 0.6% and 0.8% respectively. Near term
outlook is bullish, with first target (via the weekly cycle) of the
2140s. It is just about feasible for the 2160/70s by the next FOMC of
mid June.

Summary
*the two leaders remain notably weak.. but if the Trans can break/hold the 8900s early next week, it does bode for a viable challenge of new historic highs in June.

So.. a second day of gains, and the Wed' low of sp'2067 now looks a long way down. Certainly, momentum has now swung strongly back in favour of the equity bulls, and the sp'2130s look very likely next week.

a little more later....
