Summary

Unless we see a sig' reversal later today.... the market is set for the fifth consecutive net weekly gain. It would seem the only issue is whether we close a little below... or above the sp'2100 threshold today

More critically, the market will see a monthly close above the 10MA.. and by a rather decisive 2% or so.

The equity bears failed to hold key resistance in October, and there is now little reason to believe it won't be a case of 'broad gains' all the way into late spring 2016.

Over Asia action...

Japan: +0.8% @ 19083...  resilient.. with an Oct' close in the 19000s
China: -0.1% @ 3382... unable to hold the 3400s, but still... a net monthly gain of 10.8%

Have a good Friday.
