The resolve of yesterday's buyers has been tested today in early trade on Thursday. Similar circumstances to Wednesday were in place at the open of trade after US stocks ended lower for a 5th day on the trot.

Despite the minor selling, most asset classes just continue to maintain some fairly tight ranges as global markets remain in a lull phase. US fiscal negotiations are also keeping some investors at bay and prompting some caution in most asset classes.
