15th Feb - Rally

Market dashboard: US stocks are rallying, but Europe is reluctant. USDJPY's plunge notable. Oil, junk bonds are back in rally-mode. Implied volatility and correlation both are recovering back toward "normal" levels after the shock.

Crude and junk suggests the stock market has found it's bottom, but Europe's mediocre rally.... lagging, or German coalition talks & Italian elections a drag?
