Summary

Little to add, as we’re just burning off s/t overbought conditions.
I’d look for a lower/divergent cycle high on Tuesday.


notable Dow component: DIS

Morgan Stanley ‘overweight’, 115>120.
Earnings due Wed’ AH
The concern should be DisneyPlus subs, as consumers cut back.

notable defensive: LMT

No news… as the stock is battling to hold the 200dma.
I’d accept this is valid l/t hold… not least on the threat of a geo-political shock.

notable trans: AAL

JPM 26>29.

notable health: MRNA

Not helped by lousy earnings from sister BioNTech (BNTX)
