Yo, sound the bell, school's in. Can't touch this.
Stocks managed to rally back today, as I suggested might happen.
Bessent can't have his Prince delivering the State of the Union address tonight without bragging rights on the Dow. Even Hot Lips Leavitt couldn't put a positive spin on a market slump. She'll most likely get some practice with this as the year moves along.
Gold and silver also gave it up early as expected, it being a Comex futures March contract option expiration and all. But they bounced back nicely which is something a little new.
VIX is holding a littler higher these days, skipping along on the EMA 20.
The Dollar bounced up just a little.

Have a pleasant evening.
