Happy Juneteenth! The US markets are closed on Monday and that could be a good thing because they certainly suck when they are open. On June 3rd we finished at 4,100 on the S&P 500 ( /ES ) and June 10th found us at 3,900, which was down 4.87%, but close enough and now, on June 17th, we're down another 200 points to 3,700 and that's now pretty much 5% on the nose. Usually we're happy with a 1% bounce off a 5% drop but really this is a 10% drop so we need a 2% (of the index) bounce, which would be 80 points (20% of the 400 we lost) on the S&P 500 . IN PROGRESS
