A brief update for today due to time constraints. Inflation data continues to surprise higher than forecast, giving more reason for the Fed to take action with higher interest rates.
The Nasdaq closed with a -0.95% decline. The candle has a 15% green body above a longer lower wick that resulted in a high 85% closing range. The support at 13,000 is positive and will hopefully continue to hold in the next few sessions.

-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=- Wrap-up
After oil prices soared and Nickel prices rose on a massive short squeeze, the inflation data just piled on with bad news. So the positive is that the market didn't react more to the downside. It's good to see support at 13,000 and we have two days of the closing range above 80%.
