Summary

This kind of chop can be expected to continue for the rest of the week… and more so… next week. Aside from the UK and French elections, the US market can be expected to be extremely subdued.

Moderate gains > sig’ gains… helped by news that July 16/17 will be ‘Prime day’… or rather… days.
–

notable stock: DIS

Goldman issued a ‘buy to $125’, but those chasing the open are already -2%
