Good Morning,
Ugh! NASDAQ Futures are down 42 with -39 Fair Value, Dow Futures are down 162. About half as bad as Tuesday. Global concerns and China weigh on the markets. Hong Kong's Hang Seng index shed 1% while the Shanghai composite index in mainland China gained 0.9%. Winterkorn officially resigns from VW. Like a punctuation mark capping a flurry of economic data today, Janet Yellen will speak in Massachusetts at 5pm.
Yesterday, AAPL opened near 113.5 and bounced around 114 for most of the day. Peaking over 114.5 in the last half hour, AAPL closed near the high of the day at 114.32.
This morning in premarket, AAPL opened lower in conjunction with Futures and dropped as low as 112.9 by 7:30 before bouncing slightly. AAPL is currently down 1.27 at 113.05.
Classic max-pain is 113.
