Bullish Outlook Focused on Large- and Mid-Caps Considering constructive market dynamics and the recent S&P 500 (SPX) breakout above 5783 following several months of consolidation, we upgraded our outlook to bullish as of last week's U.S. Macro Vision report (10/15/24). Since late-July, we have been neutral on the SPX, preferring to buy near 5100-5200 support and sell near 5670-5783 resistance until there is a break in either direction. The verdict of the market is the only one that matters, and...
Bull Trap Still Brewing? The S&P 500 (SPX) continues to hold below 5783, which is the upper-end of an important target/resistance area (5670-5783) we have discussed since our 8/13/24 Compass, just after the SPX hit our 5100-5191 "expected pullback zone." 5670 was the prior all-time high set in July, while 5783 is 2% above 5670. The current "breakout" above 5670 is an extraordinarily weak one, which usually suggests a false breakout/bull trap is brewing; the SPX has spent nearly three weeks abov...
SPX Bull Trap Setting Up? The S&P 500 (SPX) is approaching 5783, which is the upper-end of an important target/resistance area we have discussed for over a month (5670-5783). Using the 2007 SPX topping analog which has tracked the current market almost perfectly, it would suggest a 2% or less move above the prior all-time high set in July at 5670 before topping, which is where we get the 5783 number... see chart below. We acknowledge that the SPX is technically "breaking out" to all-time highs ...

U.S. Dollar (DXY) Violating YTD Uptrend Signs continue to point to the formation of a new uptrend on the S&P 500, something we have discussed as our expectation on a weekly basis since late-April (4/30/24 Compass). Shorterterm, both the S&P 500 and Russell 2000 are trading/consolidating within 1.5-2 week bull flag patterns, and we are on the lookout for upside breakouts due to ongoing healthy market dynamics. Our bullish outlook (since early-November 2023) remains intact. • S&P 500, Russell 2000...

Downgrading Real Estate to Underweight Our bullish outlook we initiated on November 7, 2023 remains intact; this intermediate-to-long-term outlook is likely to stay in place as long as 4800 support holds on the S&P 500 (implying 7-10% downside) and market dynamics remain healthy. To be clear, we are not calling for a pullback to 4800; we view it as a worst-case scenario for the S&P 500, and we simply want to be prepared for anything. Shorter-term, we remain bullish on the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100...
Gold Breaking Out Above 3.5-Year Resistance as the U.S. Dollar (DXY) and Treasury Yields Roll Over The number of risk-on signals continues to grow, while risk-off signals remain virtually non-existent. This is a hallmark of bull markets; we will be sure to point it out when this dynamic starts to change. In the meantime, we want to continue riding this bull market higher, and our bullish outlook (since early November 2023) remains intact. Gold and Silver Breaking Out as the U.S. Dollar (DXY) a...
Yesterday's hotter-than-expected CPI report continues to suggest a more restrictive Fed policy than the market has been expecting. This raises the possibility of further consolidation for small- and mid-caps. Meanwhile, large-cap indexes (S&P 500, Nasdaq 100) remain bullish, finding support at their respective 20-day MAs since November 2023; the only question is whether that will continue to be the case, as our main concern remains rising Treasury yields and the U.S. dollar (DXY), which have bro...
DXY Break Below $101 Suggests Breakouts Likely Coming for Equal-Weight SPX, Dow, and Russell 2000 Ever since our 5/30/23 ETF Pathfinder, our view has been that we cannot be bearish unless a key support level breaks (at the time, that was 4050 on the S&P 500). The S&P 500 is now above 4300-4325 -- a level that, in January this year, we had anticipated would cap upside for 2023. It is increasingly likely that 4300-4325 will act as major support moving forward, and we are bullish as long as the S&...
Russell 2000 (IWM) Testing $180 Support We discussed last week (6/21/23 Compass) how consolidation was likely, and so far that is what we have seen with the S&P 500 back to test the 4300-4325 area which we anticipated would cap upside for 2023. We continue to watch short-term support at 4300, and we cannot be bearish if the S&P 500 is above 4300. However, a break below 4300 could bring selling pressure, and potential support levels to watch would be 4165-4200 followed by 4050. Structurally high...

Upgrading Energy To Overweight There continues to be a dearth of bearish signals emanating from this market. As a result, we remain bullish and we continue to view any pullbacks as buying opportunities. · S&P 500, Nasdaq 100. On the S&P 500 we see short-term support at 3750 (coinciding with the uptrend), with the next key support levels coming in at 3635, 3588, and 3550.
