*COMMENTARY: Support emerging on dips back to $47.86-48.38 is a concern for
bears who need a close below the $47.86 to confirm an easing of bullish pressure
and below the 55-DMA ($46.95) to hint at a move back to $42.28 with below $45.16
to confirm. Layers of resistance $50.10-51.20 remain key. Bulls need a close
above the 200-DMA ($51.20) to confirm a bullish bias and shift immediate focus
to May highs ($52.63).
