Japan’s Nikkei 225 has finally rebounded from the support zone and is now trading above key levels suggesting a retest of the February highs if not beyondThis looks good also for a USD denominated foreign investor as US yields remain low and the USD on the back foot thereby keeping a lid on USDJPY.

Our methodology fuses global market variables and isolates drivers in trends. We specialize in FX, index trade in NY and Asia with a focus on Asian stocks. 

SPX near term risk to reward is less attractive above SPX 4,500 (overshooting), with a game plan to buy a pullback. Macro bullish to buy the US on September weakness, if seasonality is a guide and the RSI top zone works.Our recent long at 4,370 was trimmed at 4,500+ with overshoot risk to projection at 4,545 (met). A fresh trade higher hinges on the hourly flat range breaking higher with 4,518 pivot support. Even the bad jobs report did not break this level (bullish tactical lean).Tactical bias is for the flat to break higher while the September risk cycle favors selling strength. 4,518/15 is the bull/bear pivot.

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.

Market conditions have started to improve, and the bottom line is that all Sectors and major indexes remain above critical supports. The absence of breakdowns continues to support our overall constructive outlook, and we are watching the 10-year Treasury yield, small-caps (IWM), Financials (XLF), and Industrials (XLI) closely for signs that a new broad-based rally is upon us.
