RSP actually is up so SPX down is mainly because of AAPL, nothing wrong.

Up/Down vol on NYSE is bullish by about 2:1. On Naz, slightly bearish.

NYSE and Naz advancers are low to moderate-- but not far off their HOD.

AAPL currently hanging out around its daily VWAP, ca 170.50; just above there is the 5min 20MA and the Open, both around 170.75 or thereabouts.

REBALANCING ALERT:
This week managed portfolios face a well-documented, mandatory “Quarterly Portfolio Rebalancing,” wherein the managers under contract to maintain a fixed percentage in stocks/bonds (often 65/35 but it varies), must re-align their portfolios to satisfy their contractual mandate.
Since stocks have outperformed bonds this quarter, these managed portfolios will be selling stocks and buying bonds to regain their mandated balance. This will be happening until end-of-quarter Friday 12/29/17, but many managers wait until the last minute to accomplish this.
With the “Santa Rally” in force, stock buyers may overwhelm the forced selling (as they have in some previous quarters), so we’ll see …

After dipping below VWAP a bit the past half hour, the above is still basically true. Hanging around. If/when this behemoth takes decisive action, it will move the overall markets.

Retail is obviously strong today, holiday weekend was full of Strong Sales news. But the homebuilders are also doing well so far.

XLF and KRE were market leaders at the Open, currently are laggards. KRE down 1%.

JUNK needs to catch up, and the sooner the better
The compression on the HYG daily bolingers are tighter than they’ve been all year, meaning a BIG move is coming.
Bulls hope it’s up, as right now junk is underperforming spy and iwm, so credit risk is still a danger (junk hasn’t made a new high since October).
