*COMMENTARY: A lack of topside follow through and pressure on the 21-DMA took
its toll with a close below the key $56.75 support Wednesday seeing focus shift
to $53.96-55.00 where the bull channel base and 55-DMA are situated. Below
$53.06 is now needed to pressure 100 ($52.09) & 200 ($50.94) DMAs. The $57.08
resistance remains key. Bulls need a close above this level to ease bearish
pressure and shift focus back to $58.02-59.05.
