Top Day Market News
The equity market is higher overnight and bonds are lower than the expectation for a higher than expected reading on the Institute for Supply Management number which will be released at 10 o’clock. Metals rebounded from oversold levels. Crude oil is higher as a leak forced the closure of a Brent pipeline. Outside weekly resistance in the ES is 1550 but it won’t do that today and probably fail around 1538 to 1540.
