Hopefully today, we’ll get a better feel for what the true intentions are for this market. We’ve been range-bound for the better part of the month – so a breakout or breakdown would be a welcome development. This market, of late, has been weeding me out of a lot of positions. Currently I am still holding on to a small position in PETS and another position in OSG.

Overnight the Asian markets ranged from 0.2% down to 1.4% down on the Nikkei. European markets are currently trading in the green by about a 0.5%. On the economic front we got the Jobless Claims coming out at 8:30am EST as well as an International Trade report at the same time.
