4250 vs 4500

It has been a while since I updated a sharing of my market positioning so here goes. The last time I gave my view on the general market, I mentioned that the market was in a state of euphoria. Well nothing much has changed with respect to that. However the market I believe is in a situation where it is digesting an expectation of higher rates ahead and probably getting comfortable with that and that in itself is good news for the market bulls. However let’s not get ahead of ourselves. The market risks still prevail and as such I am still positioned defensively with agility being key moving forward.

Technically, I believe the levels on the broad market index that pays paying attention to are the 4500 on the upper level and the 4250 on the lower level. If the market can break above 4500 and stay comfortably above, I believe the market blow off is still in progress and I would expect the market to continue marching to the 4800 levels on the manes of the favourite AI names. Break below 4250 and I would expect further weakness with a possibility of the local top being in and that would mean an even more defensive posture to protect positions.

All in all, the CPI numbers this Wednesday will probably decide the short term market direction. A hot number will probably temper the bulls and embolden the bears waking them up from their slumber. A cool number will fuel the bulls’ march and keep the bears at bay.

    But I think they will continue to gain momentum for the rest of the year.

      They might. They really do. That is why I have two counts that I believe are playing out on my charts. One sees the markets powering up into the year end. The other is that C wave down. Once again price action decides which plays out.

    Do you mean you are bearish in long term or short term?

      If my price levels break or a market changing event occur, I might change near term bullish to bearish on an instance. Thats how poised I think the markets are!

      Bullish in the very short term of 1-2 months. Bearish in the 4-6 month period. Price action determines my positioning though. Hence the mentioned levels watched. Might change my stance as price action as well as macro data shifts. Hope that helps.

      History suggests that core will not go down without a recession. And if the Feds are thinking what I think they are, they know they need a recession to help them control inflation.

      I believe inflation data might surprise on the upside putting more pressure on the Feds, if not this month CPI, it will be upcoming months. Core CPI and super core CPI are not budging. And headline CPI is going down thanks to lower oil and food prices.

      I believe inflation will surprise to the upside if not this month the next. Core CPI and super core CPI are not budging. Headline looks good coz of lower oil and food prices. But how low can those go before they bottom?
