BMB Note:
The market seemed to change character a bit this morning, with the recently-parabolic Apple reversing hard off morning highs along with the indices. Maybe we’ll actually see a pullback get started. And remember it’s expiration week.
EURUSD looks like its wanting to roll over too. That could push stocks lower if it follows through to the down side.
