 The Tiger, Financial News Network. Update. Good morning, folks. This is Steve Rhodes, coming to you live from the shores of sunny Delray Beach, Florida. This year, 9 a.m. update, currently of all the U.S. equity futures trading to the upside. That was up 364 points. S&P up 142. NASDAQ 100, 117. Russell's up 24. All those are over 1% to the upside. Over an age last night, a bit of a mixed bag. The Shanghai was up just slightly. The Nikkei was up 153 points. The Hangsang finished down 60. Over in Asia right now, or Europe right now, you've got both the DAX and the FTSE. Traded the upside. The FTSE is in a breakout mode at this stage here, so it should continue higher. And we'll take a look at really the results of how the market has responded to the jobs numbers. I believe there were fewer jobs reported than anticipated. In the month of December out there, you've got gold trading up 15 bucks. Silver's up 45 cents. That's nearly 2% to the upside there. Lights recruit us up a buck. Natural gas still struggling. It's off three pennies as we speak. Treasury bonds up 12, 13 ticks right now. Trade out 127.30. The notes, the 10-year note is up 11 ticks. She's trading out at 113.11. The US dollar index is actually negative now. I do have a 10-minute delay, so what I showed being down seven ticks as we speak. And if the US dollar index continues to move lower, I would expect these gains to hold out there. So what's all that mean? Let's go take a look at our nine panel. Market Update chart. We've got the EES mini. We can see the EES mini trading really right into what has been an area of resistance, which is the center of its bullish structured, slightly bullish structured daily profile. So the key level to be watching here is going to be that 38.79 level. Price right now is trading out at 38.68. 38.79. The price able to close above that, it's a pretty good indication of the intent to move up to 39.54. Spot follow tonics still remains below its 50-day exponents moving average. 50 days at 23.08. As long as price remains below that, that puts the wind at the sails of the bulls for the S&P 500. The NQ got back, it's tested and rejected the bottom of its profile. 10.823 is a key area out there where price should go target is the 11.150. The real sell zone is between 11.150 and 11.284, the NQ. As we take a look at the US dollar index, yesterday it closed above the top of its bearish structured profile. If we get a second close above that level today, and that would be a 104.67, that would tell us about a change in trend out there, gold right now, trading above the top of a new daily profile that it is also forming at 18.44. Folks, stay tuned. Tommy O'Brien with the Morning Market Kickoff. He's up next. Have a fantastic Friday, fabulous weekend, and I'll see you on Marvelous Monday. Take care, folks. Be safe out there.
