12pm update – cheerleader time

US equities remain very significantly lower, but are holding the early low of 3339. VIX is holding under the early high of the 35s, with a downside gap to the 30s. WTIC printed a new intra low of $36.13.

Summary

Well, we’re near the lows. Even if that low is taken out, we should still see a divergent higher cycle low – relative to early Friday, as the market remains extremely oversold.

For now, I have to see bounces as such, as the 50dma in the low 3300s appears a given, if more likely after a swing to the 3450/3500 zone.


notable stock: AMD

Considering the Nasdaq, AMD is relatively holding up.

notable weakness: TSLA

I’d guess Tesla will settle with a hollow red reversal candle, which will bode bullish for Wednesday.

notable Dow component: BA

Morgan Stanley ‘underweight $181s’.
Dreamliner problems, and further order cancellations.

time for lunch, and to check on the cheerleaders…
