Update of Market View
We have been looking for some correction since the beginning of February. We will see if a correction started on Tuesday the 13th. If it has, then we could see a move
down to the 480 area on SPY, and if that breaks a test of the 460-area is possible. One other concern we have had is interest rates.
A while back we published some key levels on TNX (42) and TYX (44). We have exceeded these levels. We show weekly charts of these, and ask yourself – if these were
stocks would you buy them? In other words, there is more interest rate risk than the market currently believes. We could see a move to the 5-area on TYX if this really
becomes extreme.
We do note that it is options expiration this week – all sorts of weird stuff may happen – but the market is set up to correct a bit more.
Other Points of Interest
Thanks to a client, we found a very strong MidCap chart: XMHQ (Invesco®MidCap Quality ETF). This MidCap chart could pull back to test 93 or so but is otherwise a strong
ETF. We would buy a daily stochastic recycle.
