Commodities

Again, today’s report will be way shorter than usual, andfocus only on select charts so as to drive position details of all the fivepublications.
Let‘s move right into the charts (all courtesy of www.stockcharts.com).


S&P 500 and Nasdaq Outlook


The tightly tracking each other indices – S&P 500 andNasdaq – are likely to part ways to a degree soon. As Treasury yields made adouble bottom, look for more tech to give way to cyclicals as they come back.Inflation, reopening trades and interest-rate sensitive spreads (e.g.financials over utilities) should start doing better.

Credit Markets

High yieldcorporate bonds resilience is a good sign, and credit spreads likely to startwidening again would confirm the continued albeit questioned economicexpansion. Not hiccup-free but still continuing – unless the Fed tightensprematurely and too much. The market isn‘t worried about that though at themoment.

Gold, Silver and Miners


Grim price action in the metals, and more be yet to come(looking at overnight price action, in all likehood we‘re done with shakeouts)– gold and silver usually do better once the waiting for taper is over. TheBernanke experience is the right one to compare taper prospects to, but the Fedwill have a much harder time mopping up the excess liquidity than it did in2018 – commercial bank credit creation isn‘t still there to make up for lostcentral bank purchases. Gold is getting inordinarily scared even as inflationisn‘t showing signs of retreating and real rates remain deeply negative – onlyinflation expectations have been jawboned. As neither miners to gold ratio norTIPS signal panic, the only question is when the metals would stabilize andwhether a fresh washout would occur or not. My view is that we‘re way closer tothe pain‘s end than to its June beginning.

Crude Oil


Oil staged another reversal, and it was intraday to thedownside. How credible is that? Again trading within the $60-$80 range, I‘m ofthe opinion that prices are interesting to the buyers here, as black gold gotcaught in the taper fears selloff just as gold with silver or copper did. Oildemand may be also coming under pressure through all the restrictions eventhough APT doesn‘t signal its sharply rising odds (yet).

Copper


Copper retreated frompromising upswing, but its indicators are slowly turning positive. While it hasmirrored the yields compression (signs of weakening growth / growth worries),it looks ready to gradually come back to life and play catch up with thecommodity index.

Bitcoin and Ethereum


Resolute downswing rejection of Sunday‘s retracement inboth Ethereum and Bitcoin – the bulls are on the march still. Cryptos haveturned the corner very evidently indeed. With so much bearish sentiment out there, the dips might be short-lasting andshallow.
