It’s another “big day” in the market, and with the entire financial world sitting on their hands until 2:00 EST, I thought I’d just a couple of charts to mull over.

I think it’s pretty obviously that equities are, shall we say, a bit long in the tooth. There’s no law saying they won’t get even toothier. Experience has shown the initial reaction (indeed, the reaction until Thursday morning) isn’t necessarily the medium-term direction of the market. Expect spasms galore.
