Summary

closing hour action: further chop, with a mini ramp in the final 20mins. S/t momentum ticked upward, and prone to turning positive on Thursday.

… and that concludes a Wednesday. With a new s/t low of 3969, it was a net bearish day. The s/t cyclical setup favours the bulls, and I continue to wonder if the Monday high will be briefly cleared… to cause maximum confusion!


notable bond yield proxy: TNX

The US 10yr yield continues to churn around 4.00%.  A spike to 5.00% is very much viable within April.

notable bond ETF: TLT

Anyone buying bonds is out of their minds, as yields/rates have some way to go.

Another day closer.

Here, it was a day of grey horror, temp was an outright cold 1c/34f, with occasional snow flurries.

Have a good evening
