Rally Continues Following Breaks in USD & 10-Yr Yield; Buy Ideas in Energy & Consumer Discretionary

By Joe Jasper

  • Our Russell 2000 (IWM) and S&P 500 targets for this rally have been the 200-day MAs, coinciding with YTD downtrends.
  • The Russell already hit this target while the S&P is closing in, less than 1% away.
  • Still, the vast majority of signals point to further upside ahead for the market indexes, and a possible end to the bear market.

Oracle Corporation (ORCL US): TSS < 10 - Target Tactical 4.0% to 5.5% Decline

By David Coloretti, CMT

  • Oracle Corporation (ORCL US) has rallied 30% in October/November 2022.  
  • A new 2 month high of 79.53 was produced on Monday 14 November amid extreme bearish ST momentum failure. 
  • Our TSS methodology triggered a Trend Sustainability Score (TSS) < 10 at the high and justifies a further 4.0% to 5.5% decline in the coming 1-2 weeks.

Daily Brief Technical Analysis: USD Breakdown a Tailwind for Asia and more

In today’s briefing:

  • USD Breakdown a Tailwind for Asia

USD Breakdown a Tailwind for Asia

By Thomas Schroeder

  • We were transitioning to short USD at DXY 114 and 113 ahead of the touted break below trendline support that is now unfolding. Our pullback target is DXY 103.
  • A weaker USD is acting as a key risk turn for EM and Asian equities (EEM bull from 34).
  • The USD breakdown is accompanied by a clear yield support break that is perhaps the higher conviction bet into a recession.

Positive Character Changes; MSCI ACWI Ex-US, EAFE, STOXX 50, Countless Others Reversing Downtrends

By Joe Jasper

  • The bear market rally we have discussed since our Sept. 29 Int’l Compass has managed to surpass our price targets, which were the YTD downtrends on the ACWX-US and EFA-US.
  • As you will see below, many countries are reversing topside their 6.5-month to YTD downtrends.
  • As a result of these bullish reversals and breakdowns on the US dollar (DXY) and 10-year Treasury yield, we are upgrading our outlook to neutral. Buy on pullbacks.

  • Wish had more conviction for writing this update. The framework for determining if the bounce is durable or if a trend reversal has occurred is not working or is not clear.
  • Stocks that could see tailwinds and drivers for a sustained rally do not have the Volume to confirm the trend change.
  • At the same time, stocks with massive headwinds and structural issues have high Volumes.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd (TSM US): TSS Target Achieved in 3 Days (+13.4%)

Daily Brief Technical Analysis: SPX Meeting Tactical Top Target and more

By | Daily Briefs, Technical Analysis

In today’s briefing:

  • SPX Meeting Tactical Top Target

SPX Meeting Tactical Top Target

By Thomas Schroeder

  • RTY long is falling short of our 1,850 PT. SPX met the 3,820/40 tactical top target outlined last week (rally from SPX 3,700). A C-wave decline is expected to 3,650.
  • DXY near support while yield remains elevated is at odds. DXY rally due from 110/109.50 and if yield push higher will see equities buckle.
  • NDX is the U/P short to add back to below 11,300. SPX long support zone rests at 3,650/20 with 3,600 the critical pivot to spur a fresh rise.

  • SPX Pullback near Target with RTY Buy In

SPX Pullback near Target with RTY Buy In

By Thomas Schroeder

  • SPX dual top at 3,928 rolled just under the 3,950 top target. Break of wedge support was the touted trigger to add to our short group. 10yr 4.20% PT met.
  • SPX 3,700/650 is our pullback target add to risk but we must get past the NFP report first. RTY is our top long pick in the US at trendline.
  • Asia shorts (HSI and Taiwan) and Asia longs to layer into (NKY and ASX). Levels to coordinate with SPX 3,660 support.

Daily Brief Technical Analysis: Tesla Motors Buy Level for Drive to 255 and more

By | Daily Briefs, Technical Analysis

In today’s briefing:

  • Tesla Motors Buy Level for Drive to 255
  • Bear Market Rally Continues; Financials/XLF Reversing YTD Downtrend; Small-Caps at 11-Month RS Highs

Tesla Motors Buy Level for Drive to 255

By Thomas Schroeder

  • TSLA (US) shows near term upside that is expected to fade and set up a better entry level below 200 with stiff resistance near the 255 target.
  • Macro descending wedge is the dominant driver into 2023 with lower wedge support at 180/160 and upper pattern resistance at 330 currently and will shift lower with time translation.
  • Buy volumes on this bounce have tapered off, suggesting this rise is corrective in nature and why our buy target revolves around a new low.

Bear Market Rally Continues; Financials/XLF Reversing YTD Downtrend; Small-Caps at 11-Month RS Highs

By Joe Jasper

  • The market remains in bear market rally mode, and our price target remains the 200-day MAs on the SPX and Russell 2000, as discussed in last week’s Compass (Oct. 25).
  • Longer-Term, this is still a bear market until the S&P 500 and IWM can break above their respective YTD downtrends/200-day MAs, and markets could easily test their lows again.
  • With that said, there are signs that suggest breakouts above YTD downtrends/200-day MAs could be coming. Catalysts include the FOMC announcement on Wednesday, followed by midterm elections on Nov. 8.

By | Daily Briefs, Technical Analysis

In today’s briefing:

  • SPX 3,500 Transitioning Higher

SPX 3,500 Transitioning Higher

By Thomas Schroeder

  • Our bullish risk call at SPX 3,500 has panned out nicely while using our short group to sell squeeze rallies. Increasing evidence sides with a more bullish November for risk.
  • USD and the US 10yr yield face pivot support with a tactical bounce bias. Conviction is to sell the USD and Yield into strength.
  • RTY long from 1,650 has been the star performer while shorting the NDX on squeeze spiked has worked fairly well. Update SPX, RTY and NDX buy and sell level outlined.

In today’s briefing:

  • Bear Market Rally in Progress as DXY, Global Sovereign 10-Yr Yields Fall; Buy Ideas Within Leaders

Bear Market Rally in Progress as DXY, Global Sovereign 10-Yr Yields Fall; Buy Ideas Within Leaders

By Joe Jasper

  • We continue to believe that a bearish intermediate-term outlook is appropriate as long as the YTD downtrends remain intact on MSCI ACWI (ACWI-US), MSCI ACWI ex-US (ACWX-US), and EAFE (EFA-US).
  • We would turn bullish only on reversals of those downtrends. With that said, a bear market rally has officially begun, something that we have discussed since our Sept.29 Int’l Compass
  • We expect to see rallies to their respective YTD downtrends (ACWX, EFA, etc.). We highlight buys that are likely to outperform on this bear market rally.

Expanding USD Top Signals

By Thomas Schroeder

  • USD splinters outlined at DXY 114 with select USD shorts in AUD, SGD, ZAR, BRL. Call to reduce USD longs with a buy level at 111, fade and 109.50.
  • US 10yr pivot support at 4% is the bull bear divide for risk and a bigger USD downturn. USD weakness telegraphing a yield decline and stronger Q4 risk cycle.
  • Trade USD uptick in some of the weaker Asian units with a plan to expand shorts for a bigger Q4 slide to DXY 105.
