2. The Losers: $BABA (-0.15%) is collapsing, signaling weakness in Chinese and speculative retail.
3. The Isolated Strong:Italian banks ($BPE (+1.68%) , $CE (-0.28%) ) and $BBVA (+0.58%) continue to outperform.
4. The Defensives:Gold ($GLD (+0.31%) ) is flat, while Pharma ($LLY (+2.03%) ) and European financials ($CS (+1.38%)
) are weak.
