Before the Open (Oct 23)

Good morning. Happy Friday.
My suspicion the market over-reacted to the intraday WFC down grade may be true. All of Wednesday’s losses were recovered yesterday, so other than 45 min of trading Wed, the song remains the same.
The Asian/Pacific markets closed up across the board with almost half the indexes gaining more than 1%.
Europe is currently up across the board – a few 1% winners there too.
Futures here in the States lean to the upside – I’ll call ’em flat.
Here are some charts I’ll checking out for today and early next week.
