Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

Technical Analysis

Our weight of the evidence approach leads us to believe the market remains in the early stages of a broad-based advance, meaning a buy-the-dip mentality is warranted. While we want to acknowledge that the potential for a US-China tariff escalation remains a risk for the market, we believe this is likely to be the case for the foreseeable future. In our December International Strategy, we highlight various themes which lead to our positive outlook, including actionable trade ideas in technology, health care and manufacturing.

Operating Income has declined by 1.8% since the end of May and is now 5.1% below the peak of December 21st last year. The decline in Net Income has been more significant - 15.7% from the peak and 3.5% since May.  Japan's aggregate trailing-twelve-month (TTM) Net Income will end this year at a lower level than two years ago. FORECASTS STILL OPTIMISTIC -  The 'gap' between current and forecast results is now the widest in two years; however, the 'roles' are reversed. Aggregate forecasts have declined by 1.4% for Operating Income and 1.6% for Net Income and the forecast 'improvements' by year-end are 3% and 6%, respectively, which we consider optimistic. UPSIDE LIMITED - The decline in the market in recent weeks has taken the forward multiple to the second-lowest level this year at 13.7 times. Alternatively, the market is implying a further 17% decline in Net Income, assuming a 'normal' market multiple of 16.7 times. We are more inclined to the latter possibility.<div class="content-caption">
