Markets were lightly traded yesterday as the adults hit the road early, and most of the kiddies were released from school at midday, as winter storm Janus pounded the northeastern US with high winds and an expected 8-14 inches of snow.

This gave the sagging SP 500 and chance to finish in the green, although VIX ticked up a little. This is a holiday shortened week in the States, and the economic news calendar is also light.

This will end. Badly, for quite a few people.

Have a pleasant evening.
