Happy Thursday, everyone. Well, in this chaotic world, I see at least Congress is going to become operational again. What a relief, considering all the important work they do. Mike Johnson has been voted Speaker of the House, edging out other candidates Bob Brown, David Smith, and John Doe.

As of this moment, the /ES has broken its Fibonacci support.
The NASDAQ futures did the same thing yesterday, as I screeched about already.
And the Russell, bless it, got ahead of everyone by failing last week.

The only wart on this supermodel’s face is my single NOW put, whose fate I’ll decide after the opening bell.
Oh, and we’ve got some news forthcoming…………
