Good morning. US equity futures are leaning weak (ahead of CPI), SPX -16pts, we’re set to open at 6816. USD is +0.1% at DXY 96.97. The precious metals are bouncing, Gold +1.2%, with Silver +3.7%. WTIC is -0.8% in the mid $62s.

Summary
Yesterday opened a little higher, but there was a rather powerful downside reversal, with the SPX coming close to tagging last Friday’s gap. S/t momentum settled on the low side.
Overnight futures have been leaning on the weaker side, especially pressured by Asian markets. We’re set to open -10/15pts, but that could easily change with the CPI data.
Yours truly is looking to make a day-trade in Silver, but I’m not in the mood to chase higher. If the gains erode in early morning, I might be interested. My default is to be flat… especially into a long weekend.
