VIX -down 5% and about 8% above the 10 day SMA's;
Ten year Bond rate down to 4.359%;
The 50 day SMA on the SPX was again overhead resistance and hopefully we won't go back to the 1,490 area. Testing that level again would not be healthy as the more times support is tested the weaker it gets.
The daily pivot point is 1,501 and the markets may bounce off those levels.
