Rally Attempt Fails
Please click here for a chart of S&P 500 ETF (SPY) which represents the benchmark stock market index S&P 500 (SPX).
Note the following:
- The chart shows when the stops of gullible investors were taken out. Please read yesterday’s Afternoon Capsule for details.
- The chart shows that the stock market behaved as it typically does after stops of gullible investors are taken out.
- The chart shows that the rally attempt failed on bad economic data of two PMI’s and New Home Sales.
- New Home Sales came at 511K vs. 580K consensus. The New Home Sales data shows that new home sales are falling much faster than stock market bulls expect.
- IHS Markit Services PMI came at 44.1 vs. 47.3 prior. This data should be especially troubling to stock market bulls. This data also shows that there is a high probability of a recession.
- The current Arora Report call is a 70% probability of a recession in the US and 90% probability of a recession in Europe.
- IHS Markit Manufacturing PMI came at 51.3 vs. 52.2 prior.
- The Treasury auction could have been better. Here are the details:
- $44B 2-year Treasury note auction
- High yield: 3.307% (When-Issued: 3.293%)
- Bid-to-cover: 2.49
- Indirect bid: 59.7%
- Direct bid: 17.3%
- The VUD indicator is the most sensitive measure of net supply demand in real-time. The orange represents net supply and the green represents net demand.
- The VUD indicator is mixed.
