Vix still red and Q's are down 1%.

Volume is real shit today, maybe this mornings volatility hit a lot of people.

Well, you had a premarket gap up on the words and promises of Putin and nothing else.

There's not much real solid good news to buy into, so we just drift back lower. Neither makes for convincing volume.

The real interest is going to be how much de-risking into the weekend takes place. I still think we chop around this SPY 420-428 range until real news (good or bad).

Time for some numbers to improve but not a great day, that negative vix is probably the main highlight.
Cancelled the couple of buy orders I had open. I think we flush on Geo-Political news today at some point. If I am wrong, I will be just as happy.

I have stops in place in case we fall apart into the close. Doesn't look good.

Could change with just 15m of some strength nobody wants to go first so far.

Even if Putin did a 180 and said "Ooopsie, my bad!" and turned Russian troops back home today, I highly doubt foreign business is just going to jump back into Russian markets. The PR optics are bad enough, let alone the risk associated with Putin still in power.
They'll wait till putine leaves office. Coincidently, I suspect he'll step down and hand off power to a puppet new leader once the Ukraine problem is solved.

So DIDI the Chinese EV maker ADR now has a share price of $2 but still have a market cap of $9b

By contrast SPIR also has a share price of $2 a share but a market cap of $278m.

Which do you think was priced correctly at go public day?

JPM really getting beat up after that counterparty news.

17:51 [JPM] Reportedly is the largest counterparty for nickel tycoon Xiang Guangda's short bets - press
** NOTE: 03/10 (CN) China's Xiang Guangda tells banks he plans to continue shorting nickel - press
** Reminder: Chinese tycoon Guangda had built a large short position in nickel futures and is facing billions of dollars in mark-to-market losses after recent nickel price spike

SPY death cross is less than 1 point away. We will basically come in Monday for trading and crossed over the weekend.

Let's see how the market reacts. I am sure it will be discussed by the talking heads of CNBC etc like crazy.

I used to think shit like the death cross mattered, but not so much today.
