Summary

Not much to add... as battle continues. Weekly/monthly cycles continue to swing in favour of the equity bears.

notable weakness, coal miners (as ever), Consol (CNX) -7% in the $14s... sub 10 looks easy.

AAPL, -3% in the $114s...  at this rate of decline, first target zone of 105/100 will be hit before month end.
