Summary

*closing hour: some distinct weakness into the close... but still.. nothing significant.

So... another broad day of chop.

No doubt some will be getting overly excited at the net daily declines, but then... most of those same people have been holding short from the sp'1900/50 zone.

For the moment I can't take any of the sporadic down waves seriously.

Lets see how China trades overnight.. and how the EU market reacts to the ECB tomorrow.
