•Macro: China’s econ data is very negative causing general market weakness. India not exporting wheat lifting soft commodities and agg related stocks
•Indices: Global equity backdrop weak with USA indices slightly lower after Friday short squeeze SPY at key 400 gamma level and QQQ at key 300 level. Look for gamma levels to act as support and resistance. VIX futures are no longer front inverted pointing to short-term recovery. 1.8% move based on volatility. High short interest names and spec tech are bid pointing to a continuation of the short squeeze; however, FAANGMT is lagging. Market dynamics usually support into Wed of Opex which can lead to positive markets

Trade Idea: NFLX
NFLX is trading higher after an upgrade by Wedbush. Not a long-term conviction idea but a bounce trade. Premarket high 194 with expected move +/-14 for week. Look for 200 as potential resistance.
