    maybe today was the "capitulation" in the 10yr yield ... saw it got down to like 0.68% at one point this AM :eek:

    it seems like until we see can some kind of bottoming in yields, we probably ain't gonna making lower lows in the indices.

    i feel like yields are the tail wagging the dog so to speak.

    SPY pulled back from 297 area rather quickly, but it might be the larger players trying to scare off the smaller guys

    Let's see if we double top at 297...

    Just got this from Norton:

    Scam Alert

    Cybercriminals are using concerns about the coronavirus to launch phishing attacks

    Learn to identify and protect yourself against such attacks

    What is Happening? While COVID-19, or the novel coronavirus, is capturing attention around the world, cybercriminals are capitalizing on the public’s desire to learn more about the outbreak. There are reports of phishing scams that attempt to steal personal information or to infect your devices with malware, and ads that peddle false information or scam products.

    In one example, a phishing email that used the logo of the CDC Health Alert Network claimed to provide a list of local active infections. Recipients were instructed to click on a link in the email to access the list. Next, recipients were asked to enter their email login credentials, which were then stolen.

    I don’t think we can find the bottom until this daily market move becoming less volatile :eek: If you are a bull you would actually prefer to see this market slowly bouncing back rather those big bounces on Monday and Wednesday. Those big bounces have been a dead cat so far :eek:

    Didn't really like GILD before the coronavirus, but now it is a pretty good hedge against the virus and a pretty nice dividend yield too :p

    Oil seems to want to break below of $40s. Not going to gamble on oil stocks yet with so many other stocks selling off, but I might get interested if crude trades at mid 30s :p
