AS I SEE IT: Today’s price action was almost an exact repeat of yesterday’s market. The market opened higher, sold off to short-term support, and then rallied all day in a nice price channel, closing near the high of the day. The market was strong again today, but I don’t like the Bonds moving down. The interest rates have been gradually moving higher almost everyday.
