Market technician Dave Chojnacki of StreetOne Technical Analysis takes a deep dive into the underlying technicals for the major U.S. averages.
Durable Goods Orders came in better than expected on Thursday, while Unemployment Claims were near their target. MSFT earnings beat expectations and set the tone for the market to gap-up at the open.

The 10YR ended the day at 3.14.
