Summary

*closing hour action: minor chop, a touch of weakness to 2084, but then battling higher.

Price structure is a clear baby bull flag.. bodes for an opening gap higher on Monday into the 2100s.

... and another week comes to a close.

Having fallen 3% last week.. and here we are.. net higher by around 3%. All those still touting a broadly bearish outlook... really... still?

The broader trend IS bullish.. or maybe you'd like to short AAPL, DIS, BAC, or INTL?

Have a good weekend
