In this Episode of Allstarcharts Weekly, Steve and I talk about the recent strength in Gold, even in the face of a Dollar that has yet to start falling. After Thursday and Friday’s turn around, I think it’s finally time for the Dollar to weaken. The way I see it, the relative strength we’ve seen in Gold was a heads up that the Dollar is set to fall. The correlation between Japanese Yen and Gold Miners on a relative basis is the intermarket relationship that stands out the most. [Read more…]
All Star Interviews Season 3, Episode 4: Tony Dwyer, Chief Market Strategist at Canaccord Genuity
I’ve been a fan of Tony Dwyer’s work for a long time. Those of you who know me see me approach the market from a top/down global macro and intermarket perspective. Tony starts his process in a similar way at Cannacord Genuity and Dwyerstrategy.com. When we’re talking about the next direction for stocks, we both focus on other assets like credit to help identify big trends. We look at the behavior of commodity and currency markets to make decisions in equities. I thought this was a really fun conversation. I particularly enjoyed Tony’s comparisons to 1995 and what was going on then with respect to the President’s public issues, interest rates, precious metals and the US Dollar. This podcast could have gone on forever if we let it, but we kept it short and concise so we could get to the point quickly. [Read more…]
Post-FOMC Charts
From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting
Wednesday morning I outlined the charts we were watching ahead of the Fed Decision and what we would need to see before getting out of the way and reevaluating our bullish Equities and US Interest Rates thesis.
Today I want to look at those same charts and note what’s changed and how we’re moving forward.
Still Cleaning Up Overhead Supply
We’ve wanted to be erring on the long side of stocks if the major Indexes are above their 2018 highs. That has been the strategy for the second half of 2019. But what if we’re not above those highs? Then what? [Read more…]
[Options] The Bird is the Word
I’ve made no secret about it. I’ve been bullish on Twitter — the business — since I first discovered the power of the platform in 2009. To say that Twitter has profoundly changed my life for the better would be a vast understatement. Sure, the company has social, ethical, even financial challenges. But Twitter is one of those companies that if it disappeared tomorrow, it would have a huge negative effect on me. I can’t say that about most businesses I interact with.
Finding opportunities to invest in the stock of Twitter — $TWTR — has been a bit trickier. [Read more…]
Time To Get Social?
From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting
Tuesday’s Mystery Chart is one of my favorite charts right now, so thank you all for your feedback and participation.
I received a lot of answers, but I’d say 2/3 of you were buyers and the other 1/3 were sellers.
With that as our backdrop, let’s get into it.
Healthy Market or Impending Doom?
This is the question I often ask myself. In which direction is there the most risk? Are we better off looking for stocks to buy or looking for stocks to sell? There is no need to make this complicated. Where are the probabilities of success skewed in our favor?
You’re well aware by now that I spend a lot of time looking through charts in the U.S. and around the world. We have Indexes, Sectors, Stocks and other assets throughout My Chartbook. One thing I learned a long time ago is to also pay attention to the bellwethers. It’s a word that gets thrown around a lot, but we take it a little more seriously around here. There are only a few of them and today I want to draw your attention specifically to what is happening in shares of J.P. Morgan. [Read more…]
Pre-FOMC Charts To Watch
From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting
Today will be a “big” day for markets as the Federal Reserve will announce their decision on the new target Federal Funds Rate.
Currently, markets are pricing in a roughly 80% chance of a 25bp cut and a 20% chance of a 50bp cut. This means market participants have assigned 0% odds to rates remaining where they are after today’s meeting.
We’ve been pretty clear over the last few months about where we stand regarding the different asset classes, so there’s not much left to do other than wait and see how prices settle by the end of the week.
With that said, here are a few charts we’re watching through Friday’s close.
