The next chart shows the MSCI World/EAFE/Emerging Market, Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index, Hang Seng Index, and Nikkei 225 index.  Nothing really interesting.

Major indices, commodities, and US dollar are shown in the next chart.  All markets are doing well, especially the crude oil starts to look attractive.

Sector overview chart.  Notice that XLF, XLK, XLI, and XLB went up on decreasing volume, and closed with a black candle.  Over the short term, these sectors look bearish.
