12pm update - holding moderate gains

US equities are holding moderate gains of 0.4% at sp'1950. A net daily gain looks probable, with the sp' still on track to battle upward to the psy' level of 2000 in FOMC week. Oil saw a net inventory build of 2.6 million barrels, but Oil is climbing regardless, higher by around 3%, trying to break into the $46s.

Summary

..back from the park :)

Greens and blues

Bullish shadow

So, equities are a little higher.. holding above key rising trend (1940 at the Friday close)... VIX is a touch red, and Oil is on the rise.

If we close better than here.. that will be a good setup for tomorrow.. and into next wek.
