The pullback in the S&P E-mini is extending early Thursday, taking out nearby support and edging below the 50-dma at 4052.82. A close below would be the first since early March. Today's weakness has extended the pullback from the alltime high to near 5%, so the index is far from entering correction territory just yet. The longevity of the recent sell-off will depend on the ability for the index to hold above key support at 3994.14. A break below here opens a decline toward 3843.25, which would be well on the way to a technical correction.
