This is the holiday shortened Christmas trading week.The Street is looking for a taste of Santa.Stocks managed to put together a little rally.The VIX took a further decline down to its 50 DMA.The funds and banksters are going to be painting up the tape into the year end, so volatility is to be expected as they take some profits, and then try to mask their decliners.Gold and silver managed to rally a bit, even as the Dollar took back the 108 handle.Have a pleasant evening.
