10am update - another new historic high

US equities open moderately higher, with the sp' breaking a new high of 2009. Metals are vainly trying to bounce, Gold +$1. Oil is on the rebound, +1.0%, but still lower by a net -1.7% so far this week.

Summary

It is just another day in market land. As has been the case for so very long..we're just regularly breaking new highs. Dow/Trans/NYSE Comp' look set to follow.

Notable weakness in the airlines, although I can't believe its solely due to the 1.0% gain in Oil.

DAL, daily


A fiercely bearish candle on the daily chart, next support are the low $38s..another 1.5% or so lower.
-
Notable strength: NFLX +2% @$486... as the giant $500 level looms. Anyone starting to wonder 'when'.. $1000 will be hit..rather than 'if' ?
-

AAPL -3%.. and there is some choppy weakness out there in tech land... TWTR, TSLA.

Someone initiated a major sell program? Its just a thought.
-

10.01am.. Factory orders +10.5%.. a touch under expectations of 10.9%.. but still.. that is a good number.

Market should be able to build index gains from here. A daily close in the 2010/15 zone..with 2025/30 tomorrow.
