Everything Else
Yen Equilibrium / 10:31AM
   Mr. Yen's comments overnight have pretty much established the new trading band between the dollar and yen to Y120 and Y125. This will be the range by which arbitrageurs will play over the short term as the market works itself out. The previous sure thing was trading between Y115 and Y120. With the dollar at Y120.5 this morning, we would go long the dollar if we can get Y120.2 but we may hold out for Y119.80 if we see a move in the markets to the downside.
NCS
Capital Markets / 10:33AM
   Traders taking their profits are knocking the Dow down. Nets are stronger than they look but everyone follows the direction of the big board. We will add to long SPH on the morning's weakness. The advance in the indexes has been ugly, with ferocious moves in both directions. This may be necessary to shake out the weak and bring in the strong. Amazon has been performing wonderfully and we regret selling out too early. Still hold a couple of calls at JUL 100 strike but they're a small consolation for the larger equity position that we sold out of. Will buy again on weakness if we can get it back down to the $105-$110 level.
