Summary

*closing hour action: a touch of natural 'cash in gains' selling into the weekend
--

... and another week in the world's most twisted casino comes to an end.

IT was the fourth week in favour to the equity bull maniacs.

For now.. there seems zero reason to short the main market... not least ahead of the FOMC.

It has to be said, the bigger weekly cycles are offering upside of another 2-3 weeks.. and at the current rate, that will offer new historic highs in some (certainly not all) indexes, in November.

Have a good weekend
