5/5 9:25

Dollar strength is mirroring stock weakness.  Stocks, commodities, and currencies are "risk-on" assets while bonds and the dollar are "risk-off" assets.  Risk-on is fading and risk-off is rising as seen in I1, smoothed as 30-day M/A.

The stock market is burrowing into the critical M/A envelope.  When DJI gets to 12,600 I'll lighten up on the shorts until it can clear 12,580.

    Could we be headed to 1320 spx?

  2. Jack, if we clear 1330 we should go a lot lower, but clearing 1330 might be tough. It corresponds to the DJI envelope at 12,580.
