US military buildup in Manbij amid Turkey’s offensive signal
The U.S. has strengthened its military presence in Syria’s Manbij, where Turkey says it will conduct an operation to eliminate YPG terrorists, leading to fears of a possible clash between the two NATO allies
The U.S. is intensifying its military presence in northern Syria’s Manbij district, controlled by the PKK’s Syrian affiliate, where Ankara said it will launch an offensive to eliminate terrorists posing a threat to Turkey, if they continue to stay in the region. Approximately 300 U.S. soldiers arrived in Manbij, west of the Euphrates River, in a convoy which included many armored vehicles and construction machines, Anadolu Agency (AA) reported, citing local sources. As Operation Olive Branch in Syrian northwestern Afrin, launched on Jan. 20, is coming to a completion, Turkey has vowed to take unilateral action against the terrorist PKK-linked People’s Protection Units (YPG) if they continue to remain in Manbij and the eastern parts of the Euphrates River.

Usually on days like today G&S never recover-but if the $ and stocks roll over they might–if not today then tomorrow–anyway, good risk/reward–and 10 days is an eternity in financial mkts–it only took 3 days for stocks to crash in February…

The only reason “technicals” works in the short term is that many others are using “technicals”, call it “herding analysis”. “Technicals” breakdown in a crisis because the stock market is non-linear.

Market manipulation is like a drug.
It feels good at first, but then you get hooked, and finally you overdose and no amount of manipulation can prevent the crash.

Re SEC
Good point….but it’s still going……
however tdy stinks of a monster recovery attempt….SM has been up all night and the FTSE is barely down now……and I have lost count of all the Dollar ramps, Gold hits already and the US ain’t even open yet.

The pm trend remains – no follow thru ever allowed. SM snaps back after every meaningful selloff and King Dollar remains supreme.
Is HUI 175 even cheap?

bidding Dollar and bashing PM’s….no follow through rule in play.
But so far no real bounce in SM……
Checking boards….whole world dumping Google and Farcebook, their traffic stats are gonna fall apart.
