Heavy selling hit late yesterday but S&P 500 futures higher, erasing the drop
S&P 500 futures are up 25 points in a move that will erase the drop in the final hour of trading yesterday. Notably, there have been two late-day drops in the past two days. That could be an indication of rebalancing flows into quarter end. I'll be keeping an eye out for the same today.
