My Observations and What to Expect:
- Futures are moderately lower.
- It is very possible that futures will open up below 1130 this morning, but I wouldn’t look at it as weakness from the bulls, but more as a pullback at this point.
- I would be more concerned if they starting dropping below 1100-1090.
- First time since August we have seen two days in a row in the negative.
- Jobless claims that misses, could result in a very nice decline and offer an opportunity to put some capital to work.
- A healthy sell-off today, would go a long ways in working off these overbought conditions.
- One thing I would keep an eye on has been the volume on the down-days during the past two days of selling – they have been higher than all other days except for 9/2.
Actions I Will Be Taking:
