Careful here...unless you're a scalper, there's potential for more downside. The SnP is still about half a point from the gap fill we mentioned on Tue as the likely first target. That is $109.60 on SPY This market and gold have in good part been driven by the very leveraged dollar carry trade [traders nirvana-zero cost of borrowing and a weak dollar] Remember, Strong Dollar changes things in a leveraged way. It means potential unwinding of risk asset positions to reduce leverage. Unwind means sell risk assets.

There is a gap down at SPX 109.60 that is likely to get filled.
