AFTERNOON SLOP

The SPX hit the low for the day before 10.00 Eastern and the general rule is that the number will hold - also note the area was the DS2 on the SPY - so we will see.

Pretty odd that the dollar is down on this big equity sell off and the EURO is trading near its daily high.

Brokerage index and IAI trading flat to green with the CME leading the way.

Consumer stocks seem to be the only area trading flattish with CVS GIS KMB PM WAG and V in the green.

Thinking we will get some green shoots this afternoon as the bears can't seem to get it down below the earlier levels-

Here is a nice chart on the Baltic Dry.

Just wondering what this here will mean for VZ?

Some odd recession losers.

Dr. Brett with some correlation themes.
