Summary

There is a great deal to cover this morning... not least in commodity/currency/bond land, but ... I can't cover it all.
--

Suffice to add... we have decisive breaks in three of the main indexes. The weekly cycles are now outright bullish. The monthly cycles.. well, now its just a case of where we close next Friday.
--

notable strength

FB +2%... breaking above the giant $100 threshold...

TWTR +3.5%... back in the $30s... ahead of earnings

AAPL +1.6% in the $117s....
--

To those still resolutely holding short from a few weeks ago...   you don't have my sympathy. There is no excuse. The levels were pretty clear.

The biggest bearish case is utterly destroyed. ... ohh, but even now, I'd imagine some of you can't accept it.
Good luck with that level of denial.
