Summary

Suffice to add, even if the SPX settles net red, with a new hist’ high of 5505, it has to be seen as a net bullish day. The s/t cyclical setup favours the equity bulls… although a quad-opex pin around 5450 looks most likely.


notable stock: SWBI

Smith and Wesson have earnings in AH
We’re gonna need more guns, right?

notable weakness: MU

A rather ugly downside reversal… if from a new hist’ high.

notable strength: AMD

Today’s upside break… and it is a break, is similar to SMCI last week.

notable miner: AG

Lagging this morning, but its caught up, set for gains of around +4%.
