10am update - back to Rosetta

Whilst equities remain moderately weak, there are far more important matters. The Rosetta probe 'Philae' is due to land on the comet around 4.02 GMT (11.02am EST). It is a pretty historic event, and frankly... my attention will remain there.

Summary

*opening black-fail candle on the VIX, not exactly inspiring for those seeking further declines this morning.

So.. early equity declines.. but nothing significant, and it is a wonder where the excuse/reason will come from for a push back under sp'2000. Retail sales this Friday... or something next week?
