Pre-Market Brief

Good morning. US equity futures are a touch higher, sp +2pts, we're set to open at 2081. It would seem that 2094 is a short term high, and the market is now headed to the 2020/00 zone within 2-3 weeks.

Summary

Overnight futures were -10pts or so...  not least pressured by weakness in Asia.

It does seem very likely we'll see closing declines today... and clarify that last Friday was the peak of the up cycle from sp'1871.

It should be a far more dynamic week than last week, and we still have further corp' earnings, notably: FB and DIS.

Nat' gas -4.2%. Oil -1.0%....
