An Ugly Outside Day
Please click here for a chart of Nasdaq 100 ETF (QQQ).
Note the following:
- The pattern shown on the chart is an ugly ‘outside day.’
- Historically, in the period before the momo crowd came to be in control of the stock market, this pattern on Friday would have almost certainly resulted in a much bigger selloff on Monday.
- The trading pattern today has similarities to trading on October 16, 1987, which was a Friday.
- On October 19, 1987, the stock market crashed and lost 22% in one day.
- The probability of a similar crash now is low.
- In 1987, Wall Street had sold portfolio insurance to institutional investors.
- Knowing that they were insured, institutional investors first did not sell.
- The insurance did not work and then institutional investors panicked.
- There is no portfolio insurance now.
- Since 1987, the government and exchanges have put in a number of protective measures such as trading halts.
- Many strongly believe that deep within the government is a highly secretive Plunge Protection Team. The apparent purpose of this team is to stop market crashes.
- Back in 1987, the Fed was engaged with its mandate of price stability. Now the Fed is very much engaged in running up the stock market.
- In 1987, 401ks were not widespread.
- In 1987 most politicians were not interested in pursuing policies to run up the stock market.
- It is difficult to predict with certainty how the momo crowd will behave. There is a fair probability that the momo crowd will aggressively buy the dip. However if momo panics, all bets are off.
- 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 solid orange indicating heavy net supply of stocks.
