MORNING DRILL

Markets are mixed but the buyers definitely seem to be out there - buying energy, banks and shipping while metals, retail and real estate seem to be a source of funds.

NYSE- 315 net green;

NAZ- 125 net red;

NDX- 60 GREEN;

OEX- 50 GREEN;

VIX- up 2.5% at 44.5;

TRIN- .59 with up volume 2x the down;

Just back from some dental work and not surprised that the lower open was bought- next area on the SPX worth watching is about 880 and its nice to see that the SMA 50 on the index holds.

Tech- and NDX/NAZ also looking good with the semis and MSH out performing- XLK/ROM also pretty pretty good.
