The bottom line, the short-term trend is down. I hold both long and short overnight.

A little little bit bullish biased toward tomorrow as whenever SPX down 3 days in a row, buy at today’s close sell at tomorrow’s close since 2003, you have 66% chances. On a little bit longer than short-term, however, as I’ve mentioned in today’s intraday comment, a strong uptrend should never have 3 consecutive down days, so the future is not very bright for bulls. I’ll, as usual, present my witness in tonight’s report to coax you into believing so.
