Summary

Little to add.

Another minor wave lower looks due this afternoon, but the earlier lows should hold.

notable weakness: miners, GDX -4.4%... bigger weekly/monthly cycles look dire.

*I am seeking to pick up INTC in the low $29s...  upside target would be the 32s. If it doesn't cool from current levels, I will not chase it.
