What’s Inside Today’s Report

— Why yesterday’s headlines were fundamentally positive for Europe

Futures are higher this morning as Europe rebounds from Monday’s declines and China surged higher on hopes of more free market reforms.

China was the out-performer o/n, rallying more than 2% after President Jinping said other regions should copy the Shanghai free trade zone and the government announced the merger of two large railroads.

Economically it was quiet but Japanese retail sales did beat expectations (2.3% vs. 0.6%) sending the yen lower.

Today should be another quiet day as Durable Goods Orders (E: 0.09%) is the only economic release while earnings continue to roll in (but again aren’t as important as last week). On the charts watch the 100 day MA in the S&P 500 at 1966ish, as a break through there will likely cause more covering/chasing.
