Monday Oct 5 Morning Notes

Es: +0.7% at 1957.00
10yr: +1.5% at 2.019
Vx: -1.7% at 20.71
Cl: +0.7% at 45.88

Earnings: N/A
Other News: Stocks popping on more bad data, assuming more of the same from the Fed.. WFM and CELG both had chatter on Friday and closed at the day highs, both are trending higher in the pre-mkt as well. GNRC got smoked on Friday after it was determined Hurricane Joaquin wasn't going to make landfall. I considered shorting the hurricane/hurricane vol via bear call spread but didn't take the bait. Didn't want to buy puts/bear put spread due to monster vol increase.
