US equity indexes are moderately higher, with the sp +2pts @ 2062. It is notable that the Nasdaq is making a third attempt to clear key resistance at the 4900 threshold. Metals remain broadly weak, Gold -$17, with Silver -3.7%. Oil is still unable to recover, -3.0% in the $37s.

Summary
*... and those will be your last inverse charts for today... normal service resumes at 1pm

I do think monthly3c is usefully provocative, as even the bull maniacs should question at least a 'natural back test' to around sp'1600 this year.. before renewed upside.
--
As for ongoing equity price action today, its clearly still messy, and if we don't see renewed weakness into the close, it will make for a disappointing end to the week.
I suppose it could be worse.. we could have gapped straight into the sp'2080s on 'goldilocks jobs data'.. and be pushing toward 2090/2100s.

Hazy skies... as summer warmth might be just 3-4 weeks away!
