The MSCI Russia ETF fell 33% today, the largest decline in its history. This was a 16-sigma event - which means that it should not have happened even once in the history of the universe (assuming a normal distribution, which markets do not follow). $ERUS

UVXY +16% was interesting today. Not large from an options volume perspective, but active from a delta perspective.

The general market is starting to feel the pressure of the oil bull market. Whereas it is great for the leading oil and commodity names, it is weighing heavily elsewhere. Tech remains very weak except for cyber security and its war bump. Net lows today & overall caution remains. pic.twitter.com/hUyuVwFnc8

Roadmap in sync: (1) the futures did touch 4400 o/n, & now it is the last leg of this sideway correction--as I laid out earlier. (2) 4280-4285 should stop this move and begin the w-c leg upwards. (3) Powell will testify tmrw at 10:00am, and that is MAJOR. (4) small short at open
4280 defended: (1) if you are not sure what "impulsive" means in EWT terms, look no further than the last 10-min of SPX--that is vertical, smashing everything type of moves. (2) an apparent BULL-FLAG, but also a POWERFUL downward trendline. (3) tmrw POWELL would decide the fate.

$SPX dropped below 4287 today which means it probably topped on Monday given this cycle has ranged 36-45 TD in the last 12 months. It's a bit strange given that SPX hasn't even bounced to the 20 DMA since Thursday. With the Ukraine war going on this is un unpredictable market. pic.twitter.com/Jm3KnFoC68
