3pm update – into the close

US equities remain choppy, if increasingly prone to cooling back.

Summary

Price action remains subdued… but that is appropriate for Christmas week.
The s/t cyclical setup favours the bears.

I’d like a gap lower… which would typically drag silver down, if only an hour or two.


notable stock: NKE

Unable to bounce.
Recent earnings were… mixed.

notable tech: QBTS

How long until the US Govt’ own 10%?

notable space: RKLB

$100 is clearly on the menu in Q1

notable silver ETF: SLV, 60min

Note the opening black candle.
S/t structure is a bull flag.

I remain entirely on the sidelines, vainly hoping for a gap lower, where I’d buy back. The cautious will NOT be buying at this time/price… says the guy who should have bought on Friday afternoon.

back at the close.
