Markets Test 50-DMA | Three Minutes on Markets & Money [7/19/21]

(7/19/21) Markets are set to open lower this morning; the 50_DMA has been a good source of support of late. We're very early in this sell-off; watch for a pick up in volatility. If the 50-DMA is broken, the next run down is to the 200-DMA--a drop of about 11%, certainly within the realm of possibility. What's coming home to roost is any justification for current valuations. Watch the NASDAQ, with its top-ten stocks making up the bulk of the entire...

Quarterly Guide to Sector Performance | Three Minutes on Markets & Money [7/15/21]

(7/15/21) It's Major Market Thursday--S&P is extended above 50-DMA, pending a correction, which will come later this year. Money Flows are positive. Markets are priced for perfection. NASDAQ has had an accelerated buying stampede--deviation above the 50-DMA is rather extreme, so a pull back would not be surprising. Emerging markets have improved, but still underperforming; similar activity is seen in International markets. Small- and Mid-caps...

Dow 35,000–How Significant Is It, Really? | Three Minutes on Markets & Money [7/13/21]

(7/13/21) The Dow nearly notches a close abouve 35,000--so what? Markets haven't gone anywhere since May. Probably upside is limited. Earning Season now commences: What's supporting prices at current (record-high) levels? Why are expectations so elevated? This will be the peak; market breadth has not been compelling, driven mostly by FANNG stocks, with underlying deterioration underway. A correction back to 50-DMA by the end of July would not be...

Is Market Exuberance Justified? | Three Minutes on Markets & Money [7/12/21]

(7/21/21) Earnings Season commences with a lot of exuberance because of comparisons to Q2-2020, and associated explosions in growth rates. More important, the look-out for earnings going forward, as corporate earnings undergo pressure. Markets are looking for some justification for over-paying for assets. Market rally was decent, but limited; as we enter back half of July, we could see a correction. The current set-up is similar to the patterns...

Yields Send Economic Warning | Three Minutes on Markets & Money [7/9/21]

(7/9/21) We've been watching Yields'sharp drop of late, with a very strong buy signal on bonds, suggesting still lower interest rates to come. What happens if 200-DMA is pierced? That makes more room for rates to fall--counter-intuitive to the narrative the economy is "booming." Resulting weakness is showing up in Small-Cap, Mid-Cap, and Emerging Markets, and there will be economic consequence from slower growth and lower corporate...

What’s NOT Working in the Markets | Three Minutes on Markets & Money [7/8/21]

(7/8/21) Something's not quite right, as treasury yields continue to decline; the S&P rally has been weak, with narrow breadth; support has only come from FAANG stocks, and money is fleeing to safety into the bond market--not a good omen if the economy is supposedly doing so well. This all doesn't necessarily mean we're in for a long overdue 5% correction right away, but Interest rates are issuing warning signs that should not be ignored. -...
