The weekly jobless claims # of 346,000 was a big surprise to the positive side versus last week's abysmal 404,000. This actually improves the 4 week moving average for the 1st time since the US market began its latest decline.

Additionally, this morning's June same store sales #'s at US retail were certainly better than toxic.

As the facts change I will, and these 2 facts are better than I was expecting.

Into market weakness, I continue to get longer this morning.
