Definitely some troubling smoke signals coming from US industrial/cyclicals except defense -- VIX settling down a bit (it had been on a slow/steady rise much of this year)... even gold is sending mixed signals (as a quick/dirty read on gold, I use a combo of CEF and RGLD for the metal itself, and HUI for miners and between the 3 of those, get a decent quick trend peek -- 10-15 years ago I used to trade RGLD, hold CEF and watch HUI like crazy)... and oil might hold onto 60s handle for a little bit while all the self-appointed analysts figure out what's going on there (pretty simple, if you ask me)... the yield curve inversion isn't real to me unless/until it is a bit bigger and longer (only 0.01 difference today)... all signs of choppiness ST, but no confirmation of underlying LT trends... yet... but I'm being cautious with the cyclicals/industrials for right this minute.
