11am update – morning chop

US equities saw opening gains fully fade. The market remains s/t oversold, and due another push upward. Its possible that ‘Goldilocks’ / ‘better than expected’ CPI data, will be the excuse for a sustained upward move.

Summary

Opening gap effectively filled.
Anyone who was short from across the weekend, has had opportunity to bail at a better level than the open. Those wanting to buy/add with a cooling wave… have got one. All can have prizes, yes?


notable Dow component: INTC

Intel is strangely higher. I see no news. Broadly… its still a mess, and I’d favour NVDA, AMD, or even TSM.

notable weakness: AMD

Competitor AMD is getting hit pretty hard… mostly just main market related. Cyclically low, and near the key 50dma.

notable stock: TWTR

Goldman issued a ‘sell to $60’, with the 50dma stops triggered.

notable steel: X

US Steel hit with the main market reversal. Cyclically low. Absolutely m/t bullish.

Time to cook… before I keel over.
