Good morning Markets appear to be shrugging off the potential for a government shutdown as traders are reminded that nearly $6.9T has been added to the U.S. stock market cap over the last year (President Trump will celebrate his inauguration anniversary tomorrow). Though House Republicans have voted to keep the government open, the real drama is in the closely divided Senate, which couldn't even agree on holding a vote on Thursday night. Congress now has less than 24 hours to avoid a shutdown. If the shutdown happens I
Read MoreGood morning We had some growth numbers out of China and we get a slew of economic data today. Equities are up slightly with gold pulling and oil up as we head into the petroleum status report later today.

The trip to CES yesterday was incredible and way too much to try and take in all at once. Complete sensory overload and the idea of being able to go see several companies I am interested in was nearly impossible because they are spread out over several locations near or on the strip which was a complete logistical nightmare. Unfortunately no video today as my throat is killing me and it is actually painful to talk.
Read MoreGood morning Markets are looking to gap down this morning which is something that we should not be all the surprised about. What will be interesting to see is if it will hold steady or accelerate to the downside and intensity, creating some long overdue fear in the markets. Oil is breaking over 63 dollars a barrel in premarket and in my mind that .....
Read MoreGood morning Equities are basically flat in premarket with gold pulling slightly while the dollar and oil are both flashing green at the moment.
