Vermilion Macro Vision: Sector Synopsis

STRATEGY We remain near-term bullish since our 4/22/25 Compass, and our intermediate-term outlook remains bullish as well (as of our 5/14/25 Compass). We will maintain our bullish intermediate-term outlook as long as market dynamics remain healthy and the S&P 500 (SPX) is above 6028-6059. Additionally, we discussed since our 10/14/25 Compass how our near-term bullish outlook remains intact as long as the SPX holds above 6550-6569, which coincided with the 3-month uptrend. SPX is now back at all...

Vermilion Compass: Weekly Equity Strategy

6550-6569 S&P 500 Support Holding For Now After 5.5-months, the S&P 500 (SPX) has now failed to break and stay below the its 20-day MA. However, 6569 has been our level that needs to break in order for us to have confidence that a pullback has begun; SPX made a low of 6551 on Friday (less than 20 points or 0.3% from our 6569 level), meaning it was not a decisive breakdown (in time or price). As a result, our near-term bullish outlook since our 4/22/25 Compass remains intact, and it will stay t...

Int'l Insights: Bullish Stocks

Buy Gold And The Gold Miners · Gold Price. The price of gold remains on bullish short- and long-term trajectories with the uptrend that began in 2018 still intact. Short-term, gold is holding above base support near $1680 and we see the 2011 highs of $1900 as an achievable target price in the coming months. · We believe gold miners are likely to benefit from continued higher gold prices.

Vermilion Compass: Weekly Equity Strategy

Market In “Wait-And-See” Phase We started to see waning upside momentum in the S&P 500 last week with the rising wedge breakdown and 2760 support level violation on Tuesday. Despite this, there was no downside follow through the following day as investors digested a new $484B fiscal relief package. This led to the S&P 500 finding support at 2725-2735 which leads us to where we are now -- testing recent highs. We see waning upside momentum and several aspects continue to suggest the S&P 500 ...
