Will Upside Pricing Be Limited?| 3:00 on Markets & Money
2022-12-12
(12/12/22) Remember the Big Short Squeeze we predicted way back in September? Negative sentiment and extra off-side positioning by investors was what was needed for the markets, and that has all played out as we thought. However, concern over the level of "overboughteness" in the rally, and proximity of triggering a MACD sell signal, have primed investors for profit-taking and risk reduction. What has been needed in December was sloppy action in the first half of the month holding support, leading to a Santa Claus rally in the second half of the month. We’re seeing signs that upside pricing may be somewhat limited, but some catalysts remain: Tomorrow’s CPI report, Wednesday’s FOMC meeting, and Friday’s options expirations could provide a mixed bag of influences and volatility this week.
Is It Too Late to Buy Bonds?| 3:00 on Markets & Money
2022-12-08
(12/8/22) Getting lots of emails inquiring whether now is a good time to buy bonds, and this is not surprising, given bonds’ terrific rally over the past few weeks. Bonds are now more than two standard deviations above their 50-DMA, with an extremely over-bought MACD signal. We believe there is still a little more upside in the Bond ETF, TLT, to about 114. The further the market gets about the 50-DMA, the more difficult it will be for prices to rise and yields to fall. You need a pullback in order to make an addition to your bond holdings. The outlook for bonds for the next year is significant because of the recessionary issues within the economy.

The Most-forecast Recession in History
2022-09-27
(9/27/22) Are markets preparing for a big Short-squeeze? Just a month ago we were talking about rampant market bullishness, and now there’s a high level of fear and angst in the markets. The dollar’s strength has created more inflation overseas, at three standard deviations above the 50-DMA; that cannot last.
Could Interest Rates Remain High through 2024?
2022-09-21
(9/1/) The Fed is expected to hike interest rates another 75-basis points today. Meanwhile, the Dot Plot, consisting of the FOMC voting members’ positions on interest rates, suggests rates will be at 4.5% by 03, and remain there into 04. Bonds are extremely cheap relative to stocks. This is debunking the TINA (There Is No Alternative) syndrome. As rates rise, those with pensions must consider whether taking monthly distributions or a lump sum is in their best interest. The fallacy of "deficit reduction;" the unintended consequences of government programs, good intentions, and bad outcomes.
