June's economic data provided little respite for those doubting the global slowing theory.  The S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrials and NASDAQ 100 cash indices again finished lower for the month by
-5.39%
,
-3.58%
, and
-6.11%
, respectively.


The holiday-shortened first week of July provided a solid reversal, however, and traders will be undoubtedly be keenly watching each earnings report for signs of where markets go from here.  Any early mixed results are almost certain to keep volatility high unless a series of strong cross-sector beats emerges.


Sentiment:
Negative

Volatility:
Moderate (VIX 23-37)

Direction:
Highly Negative
