With the sp' closing +29pts @ 2023, the broader market looks on track for a third consecutive net weekly gain. The sp' has climbed 152pts (7.6%) since the marginally higher low of 1871. Without question, the only important issue is whether the market can see sustained action above the 200dma.. and monthly 10MA.

Summary
A tiresome day.. and suffice to say... there is NOTHING bearish in the immediate term. Even Oil looks like it made a short term floor today, despite a rather huge net weekly inventory gain of 7.6 million barrels.

Don't forget about China
As of 10pm EST, the SSEC is +1.0% @ 3370.
Any sustained action >3400 would be highly suggestive the down wave from the 5100s has concluded. I think its to be taken VERY seriously.
Goodnight from London
