US equities closed somewhat mixed, sp +0.9pts @ 2080 (intra low 2072). The
two leaders - Trans/R2K, both settled -0.3%. Near term outlook
offers further weakness to the 200dma (2046 and rising), but that will
not be easy as the USD remains in a cooling phase.

Summary
So, a bit of a mixed day in market land. A fair few indexes settled lower for the fourth consecutive day... lead by the Trans/R2K.
Overall... price action remains not particularly bearish.. not least whilst the broader upward trends (for most indexes.. certainly not all) remain intact.
Right now, best case for the equity bears is a test of the 200dma (sp'2046.. and rising)... before the next attempt to break new highs.. after the next FOMC (June 17th).
