Yesterday continued the Games ahead of 8:30 AM EST and the balance of the Week for Macro Data.
There is nothing good out there.
Wholesale Unleaded is off 27% and the Price at the Pump is the same.
10.2% CPI Leak yesterday hooked a few fish until Redmond decided to Lay Off some Waffle Cones,
preferring Cake Cones for the Softie dispenser.
Mega Caps cutting Jobs, Guidance to follow.
Yesterday's Bond Auctions - another disaster. That's 27 and counting.
Heavens forbid the Dollar grinds to and through Overbought for another few weeks... it will be
an Epic disaster. EU seems to be letting the 6E/XEU/EUR just fall apart.
Bravo. Spray Tan in a Can.
______________________________________________________________________________________
The Range is clear there are two symmetries in sum - both are not Bullish.
Riggers need to close over 3850 this week and recapture any hope above 3902, at present 3885 is
providing a stiffy.
Good luck, trade safe - the Biggest Rig on Earth is propping up the Big Top - let's see if they pull the
Supports.
3506 - lower expected move
Upside - Anyone's guess, it's Summer.
Were Inflation to beat, they'll need to crush 3900 for another Fake Squeeze...
We're SOH until the reaction - the Range is about to GROW.
