*COMMENTARY: Bulls take comfort in the lack of follow through on dips below the
100-DMA with focus having returned to $66.35-68.97 where 21 & 55-DMAs are noted.
Bulls need a close above the 55-DMA ($67.40) to gain breathing room and above
the 21-DMA ($68.97) to shift focus higher. While the 55-DMA caps bears retain
the advantage and need a close below $63.87 to shift initial focus to $61.73 and
overall focus to $56.93-59.70 where the 200-DMA and Feb lows are noted.
