Vermilion Compass: Weekly Equity Strategy

U.S. Dollar (DXY) Rolling Over Large-cap indexes (S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, and DJI) remain bullish, all hitting new all-time highs last week while continuing to find short-term support at their respective 20-day MAs. Mid-caps (S&P 400, Russell Mid-Cap) are starting another leg higher following breakouts from 2-month consolidations. Small-caps (S&P 600, Russell 2000) are likely to follow in the footsteps of large- and mid-caps, and are likely to break out from their 2.5-month consolidations/high bas...

Vermilion Compass: Weekly Equity Strategy

Lockout Rally Continues; Breakouts Piling Up Since our 11/21/23 Compass we have discussed on a weekly basis that even a minor 2-5% pullback is far from a guarantee, considering "breakaway gaps" and what appeared to be an ongoing "lockout rally," while also discussing that we would be buyers if a pullback did happen. All we got was a 1% peak to trough decline in the S&P 500, while the Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) pulled back 2.9% (though left the 11/14/23 gap unfilled). Now, the SPX and QQQ are breaking out...

Vermilion Compass: Weekly Equity Strategy

Year-End Rally to Continue? The broad equity market has been on an absolute tear since we discussed in our 10/31/23 Compass how risk/reward favored buyers as key supports were being tested, including 4165 on the S&P 500, $162-$163 on the Russell 2000 (IWM), and $350 on the Nasdaq 100 (QQQ). Furthermore, we discussed in our 11/7/23 Compass our belief that this was more than just another counter-trend rally, and that it is likely the start of a significant year-end rally. We also reiterated our b...

Vermilion Compass: Weekly Equity Strategy

Just Another Counter-Trend Rally, or Something More? We believe there is significant evidence that the broad equity market has bottomed, and a year-end rally has begun. In last week's Compass (10/31/23) we discussed how the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) did not display decisive breakdowns, and that a break above 4165-4200 and $350-$355, respectively, would be bullish, since that would indicate false breakdowns. False breakdowns are officially in place, and these levels remain important supports ...
