The futures got a slight boost to just above the flatline after this morning’s economic data was released. My very short-term intraday indicators are still bearish so I’ll be looking for shorts unless they flip to bullish. Given the way the market’s been acting I’m not expecting much follow-through to yesterday’s selling.
