MORNING ISSUES

Markets are trading higher but predicting how long they will hold or where they go from here is just a bit difficult.

Strong sectors include china, emerging markets, metals, insurance and real estate while biotech, trannies, retail and homies lag.

NYSE- 1000 net winners;

NAZ- 1160 net winners;

VIX- down 4% at near 34.75;

Up volume 5X down volume;

TRIN- .50;

A few technical issues this morning so not trading but still not sure what I would do - anyhow here are some great links:

The NYC Mayor on the next crisis;

An interesting poll from Quinnipiac;

The latest from Roubini;

Rasmussen on the new map;
