Selling pressure finally materialized today.  Breadth was quite poor around 3-to-1 negative, and the banks fizzled late after a mid-day rally.  The S&P 500 breached 1314 at the 50-day simple moving average briefly, and the Nasdaq broke that level with some conviction.  We are oversold enough for some sort of bounce after 4 down days and the resumption of big POMOs, but one really has to wonder if the bulls have the ability to pull off another “V”-shaped bounce.  All eyes will be on JPM earning tomorrow morning.
