[imiloa]

a 23% retrace to 194 would net me 5-figures from my puts
getting me back in the game.
so i wouldn't complain. ;-)

but after the last couple days of strong rallies on airy volume
i still feel our fate is in the hands (whims) of the bots.

[imiloa]

also a slew of econ data today, with mixed bag @ 8:30 in pre.

jobless claims up a tad
more energy sector layoffs
productivity still contracting
good jobs rate unchanged

net was slightly bearish
which would be bullish in rate-hike anxiety terms.

but does seem like SPY is taking a swan dive today regardless.

PMI, consumer confidence, factory orders, etc... still ahead
