The S and P rallied
and the Nifty fell last week. Indicators are bullish for the week. Deflation is in the
air. Another new high amid loads of divergences. Earnings revisions have been
very good but it is already in the price. Typical late-cycle FED put
stuff is leading to a taper tantrum and an imminent
top. Tail risk has skyrocketed with the Skew/Vix ratio
recently touching double digits. 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. Transports,
the Dollar, market breadth, and the skew are flashing 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 is imminent. The moment of reckoning is very
near. Technicals are about to track fundamentals and turn bearish.
The market is yet to price in one of the worst earnings decline periods in
stock market history. 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 100% in our most recent rally of the lows in the last 12
month period. After extreme euphoria for the indices, a highly probable selloff
to the 3900 area is emerging on the S and P, and 13000 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. SPX 1800
and lower in a year and we stay there till 2030, scary? The markets are very
close to an epic meltdown and the SPX is headed way lower.
The
markets are overvalued, overbought and out of touch with economic realities.
Long term, the epic meltdown is set to continue resulting in a 5 year plus bear
market with lot lower levels long-term that may be as low as 800 on the S and P. QE
forever from the FED is about to trigger the deflationary collapse of the
century as we make a major top in global equity markets. The market is looking
like the short of a lifetime with topping action in the transports, other
global indices, and commodities. High valuations continue.
The
recent global virus epidemic (black swan), has dented global GDP significantly
and will usher in a depression much faster than most think. The trend is about
to change from bullish to bearish and the markets are about to get smashed by a
rebounding dollar. Looking for significant underperformance in the Nifty going
forward on rapidly deteriorating macros. A 5-year deflationary wave has started
in key asset classes like the Euro, stocks, and commodities amidst several
bearish divergences and overstretched valuations.
We are
entering a multi-year great depression. The markets are still trading well over
3 standard deviations above their long-term averages from which corrections
usually result. Tail risk has been very high of late, as interest rates are
about to plunge yet again reflecting a major recession. The critical levels to
watch for the week are 4425 (up) and 4400 (down) on the S & P 500
and 15950 (up) and 15800 (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 about to get torched soon (despite the bullish
consensus emerging). You can check out last week’s report for a comparison. Love your thoughts
and feedback.
