Mid-week market update: It’s remarkable how resilient the stock market has been in light of the challenges it’s facing. The S&P 500 ended an upper Bollinger Band ride last week and it’s been consolidating sideways. The newsflow has been mostly negative, and stock prices have been given lots of opportunity to retreat but the index remains...

Mid-week market update: I suggested on the weekend that the animal spirits were back. Indeed, the market may be undergoing a broadening in breadth and leadership. NASDAQ 100 stocks are coming off the boil, and med- and small-cap stocks are showing signs of life. That’s a welcome short-term sign that this rally may have more...
Mid-week market update: One of the bullish tripwires I outlined on the weekend has triggered (see Buy the Cannons: Exploring the Bull Case). The small cap Russell 2000 ETF staged an upside breakout through the neckline of an inverse head and shoulders pattern, with a measured upside objective of ~250, which represents a potential upside...

Mid-week market update: As expected, the Fed stayed on hold today and took a wait-and-see attitude on the timing of rate cuts. While economic data has softened recently, as evidenced by the decline in the U.S. Economic Surprise Index, the Fed is still waiting for clarity on the effects of tariffs on inflation to make monetary...
Mid-week market update: One of the running themes of the TV show, the X-Files, is a poster on the wall of FBI agent Mulder with the caption "I want to believe". As the S&P 500 breaks out at the 6000 resistance level and Street strategists scramble to their index targets, I also want...

Mid-week market update: On the weekend, I presented this inverted chart of the S&P 500 as a different perspective and rhetorically asked, "Would you buy a stock with this chart?" At the time, I had a slight bearish tilt on the market. Since then, the news backdrop has been calming. Trump extended the...

Mid-week market update: Is this Donald Trump's Liz Truss Moment? In the fall of 2022, UK prime minister passed a series of unfunded tax cuts. The bond market rebelled and sold off hard, especially in the long end of the yield curve. The massive sell-off forced a number of "hedged" pension funds into technical insolvency,...

Mid-week market update: The market approached Trump's "Liberation Day" tariff announcement all beared up. Trading desk surveys indicate that most retail and institutional market participants had reduced risk coming into the announcement, with outright bears outnumbering the buy-the-dip crowd by 7%. While the ultimate outcome of the Trump tariffs will move markets, there's...
