Stocks tried to rally from early this morning, starting with the futures overnight.

By the end of the day, they gave those up and hung on for just small losses from a gap up open.

Gold and silver were under a bit of pressure, with silver doing a little better on a ranging day.

The VIX continued to fall.

All is well.

I am not watching the bond market closely but keeping enough on an eye on it to watch for signs of problems that will appear long before they show up in equities.

The bond bros tend to be the adults in the room. And they will let you know how well a new policy in politics or economics is being received.

It is relatively easier to paint the tape on equities than the global bonds market.

The Dollar is firmly planted on the 99 handle. Low in the short term, but in the longer term, it's in no apparent trouble - yet.

This is Holy Week. The markets will be closed on Good Friday.

There will be a stock market option expiration on Thursday. 

The back-and-forth and the increasingly outrageous whoppers being told by public figures and their own corrupt actions are very bad. It contributes to an atmosphere of lawlessness,

More to my concern, it tends to drain the light of love out of people, leaving hardened hearts that are ironically more vulnerable to the dark forces of evil.  

Believe what you will, but try to love the truth in all that you do. If you love the truth with a faithful heart, you may come out of this all right. And that is what really matters because it is what makes and keeps us human and not beasts.

"The most important problem in the world today is your soul, for that is what the struggle is about."     Fulton J. Sheen

You do not have a soul. You are a soul.  

You do not belong to this world. You are just passing through.

Have a pleasant evening.
