The S and
P was unchanged and the Nifty fell last week. Indicators are bearish for
the week. Deflation is in the air despite the recent inflationary spike and
the Chinese Yuan is telegraphing just that. Feels like a 2000 style
recession trade has begun, with the increased possibility of a waterfall
decline in risk assets soon. (My views don’t matter, kindly pay attention
to the levels). The S&P 500 closed below the 200 DMA recently, after spending
a very long time above it, and the 200 DMA has started to decline. Monthly
MACD’s on most global markets have gone negative after a long time. This
spells trouble ahead and opens up significant downside risk ahead. We
could continue the selloff in the markets this week, with a likely short-term
bottom near the 3900 mark on the S & P.
We got a bounce that reached the 200 DMA without capitulation. This suggests the lows may
not be in. Markets have been making new highs amid loads of divergences and risky assets are breaking to the
downside. Earnings revisions have been average, but any significant upward
revisions appear unlikely. Typical late-cycle FED put stuff has
led to a taper tantrum following the recent taper announcement
from the FED and a likely top. Tail risk has
skyrocketed recently. The market is about to begin an epic correction.
Deflationary busts often begin after inflationary scares (the market is calling
the Fed’s bluff) and long bonds are telegraphing just that.
The transports led the most recent rebound and are starting to
lead the next decline, The Dollar, tail risk, market breadth, and bond yields, are continuing to flash major
warning signs. The epic correction signal is alive and well with retail,
hedge funds, and speculators all in, despite the recent melt-up, suggesting a major
top may be in. The moment of reckoning is very near. Technicals
are tracking fundamentals and have recently turned bearish. With extremely high
valuations, a crash is on the menu. Extremely low volatility suggests
complacency and downside ahead.
We rallied 46% right after the great depressions (1930’s) first
collapse and we have rallied over 120% in our most recent rally of the lows in
the last 2-year period. After extreme euphoria for the indices, a highly
probable selloff to the 3800 area is emerging on the S and P, and 15000 should
arrive on the Nifty in the next few months. The FED is repeating the Japan
experiment and the 3 lost decades in Japan (1989-2019) are set to repeat across
the globe.
The trend has changed from bullish to bearish and the
markets are about to get a reality check and get smashed by a strong dollar.
Looking for significant underperformance in the Nifty going forward on rapidly
deteriorating macros.
Tail risk has been very high of late, as yield curves are about to
invert yet again reflecting a major upcoming recession. The critical levels
to watch for the week are 4135 (up) and 4110 (down) on the S & P
500 and 16500 (up) and 16300 (down) on the Nifty. A significant breach of
the above levels could trigger the next big move in the above
markets. High beta / P/E is getting torched yet again. Gold
is increasingly looking like the asset class to own in the upcoming decade.

your thoughts and feedback.
