A decent comeback after major weakness Wednesday.

Dips have been bought and this one seems to be no exception, but charts have been hit and may need time.

To me, it looks like markets need more time than one day to refresh before we move higher, so I do expect this dip to not be bought as strongly as we have seen the odd time we see a down day.

SPY came back pretty well but I need to see it move above 238 before I am convinced this very sharp, strong, dip on heavy selling was a one day wonder.

I just can’t see that type of selling lasting only 1 single day.

Time will tell, likely tomorrow, since we move so quickly when we do move.
