TrendView VIDEO ANALYSIS & OUTLOOK: Wednesday, March 12, 2014 (early)

Concise Highlights   

While the US equities managed to hold well in spite of the weakness in Europe late last week into Monday, the broader sense of global weakness began to take its toll yesterday into this morning. While beginning the week in a fairly neutral position, by late yesterday the June S&P 500 future weakened down to key short term up channel support in the mid-1,850 area. Even allowing slippage below it (i.e. a near term DOWN Break) might only be part of an overdue correction, the next key trend support is back into the 1,840-35 area.

The rationale for it to weaken further on a day with little US economic data is apparent in the weak overnight economic indicators out of Australia, Japan and the Euro-zone. That is reinforcing a general sense of weakening global economic tendencies this week. And it is becoming even more important for Europe that its equity markets are nearing much more important supports than the still relatively elevated US equities.

The video timeline begins with macro (i.e. fundamental influences) factor discussion of the influences noted above, and also the degree to which the basis for those global economic concerns began with the very weak Chinese export numbers on Monday.    

It moves on from there to the June S&P 500 future short-term trend view at 01:20 and intermediate-term at 03:00, then the other equities from 06:30, with govvies analysis beginning at 09:15 (including discussion of the significant discounts in the June contracts) and skips short money forwards and most foreign exchange due to the tendencies being very consistent with yesterday morning’s Global View video analysis. Yet the situation in several currencies warranted a quick update this morning after mention of the US dollar and Europe being kind of stagnant this morning at 14:00, including AUD/USD at 14:20, USD/JPY at 16:10 and EUR/AUD at 17:20 prior to a return to the June S&P 500 future at 32:20 for a final view and additional perspective. We suggest using the timeline cursor to access the analysis most relevant for you.

TrendView VIDEO ANALYSIS & OUTLOOK: Tuesday, March 11, 2014 (early)

Global View: All Markets  

Even with the weakness of the equities in Europe late last week into Monday, the US equities managed to hold on in the wake of another substandard (even if slightly better than estimated) US Employment report. That is a testament to the degree to which the global equities psychology right now (even Europe) seems to remain bullish. The more extensive technical trend support remains somewhat below the European equities as well in spite of the regional geopolitical tensions. US equities have been able to look past that and the weakness of yesterday’s Chinese Trade numbers after Friday’s new S&P 500 high.

What is most important, and originally covered at length in today’s TrendView Video, is the success the S&P 500 future had in pushing not just to a new all-time high, but also above key weekly oscillator resistance in the 1,865-70 range last week. As the March contract remains the lead contract until next week Thursday, our focus on the June S&P 500 future means the analysis will need to account for the 7.00 premium in the March contract until then. That means any dip back to 1,863-58 in the June contract is only back to near term support. And with mixed economic data this morning (German Trade Balance as expected but on higher volumes), the technical trend picture will be more important.

The video timeline begins with macro (i.e. fundamental influences) factor discussion of the influences noted above, and also the shift to June contracts for all markets based on futures analysis. It also notes that the OECD Composite Leading Indicators were rolled into its Interim Assessment that is friendly on developed economies (with caveats) yet downbeat on Emerging Market Economies. It also noted that global trade volumes may have peaked for this cycle at relatively modest levels.   

It moves on from there to the June S&P 500 future short-term trend view at 02:20 and intermediate-term at 04:10, then the other equities from 08:40, with govvies analysis beginning at 11:20 (including discussion of the significant discounts in the June contracts) and short money forwards at 19:15. Foreign exchange begins with the US Dollar Index at 22:20, jumping over to Europe at 23:00 and Asia at 25:20, followed by the cross rates at 28:40, and a return to the March S&P 500 future at 32:20 for a final view and additional perspective. We suggest using the timeline cursor to access the analysis most relevant for you.

Global View: All Markets  

Even with the weakness of the equities in Europe on Monday slipping below some near term supports, the US equities managed to hold with only the most temporary slippage back below key technical trend levels. That is a testament to the degree to which the global equities psychology right now (even Europe) seems to be able to surmount geopolitical disruption to remain bullish. Even though Europe remains restrained by the regional geopolitical tensions, the US equities have been able to look past that to make new highs in the S&P 500 and NASDAQ.

What is most important, and originally covered at length in today’s TrendView Video, is the success the March S&P 500 future had in pushing not just to a new all-time high, but also above key weekly oscillator resistance in the 1,865-70 range. Today’s notes how that has opened the door to a push to the next significant oscillator threshold (also major weekly channel topping line) into the 1,895-1,900 area, especially as the economic data has turned more constructive of late (especially global PMI’s.) And the govvies have rightfully suffered after hitting new early year rally (some would say bear market reaction) highs on Monday’s geopolitical ‘haven’ bid. And even the foreign exchange is envigorated again on a serious bout of secular US dollar weakness.  

The video timeline begins with macro (i.e. fundamental influences) factor discussion of the influences noted above, and also the degree to which the US Employment report is estimated to show a gain of 150,000 in Non-Farm Payrolls after little overseas data this morning.  

It moves on from there to the March S&P 500 future short-term trend view at 01:30 and intermediate-term at 03:45, then the other equities from 07:15, with govvies analysis beginning at 10:20 (including discussion of the significant discounts in the June contracts) and short money forwards at 16:00. Foreign exchange begins with the US Dollar Index at 20:25, jumping over to Europe at 21:25 and Asia at 24:15, followed by the cross rates at 27:00, and a return to the March S&P 500 future at 30:35 for a final view and additional perspective. We suggest using the timeline cursor to access the analysis most relevant for you.

Global View: All Markets  

Even with the weakness of the equities in Europe slipping below some near term supports on Monday, the US equities managed to hold with only the most temporary slippage back below key technical trend support. That is a testament to the degree to which the global equities psychology right now (even Europe) seems to be able to surmount even geopolitical disruption to remain bullish. And while the Ukrainian-Crimean turmoil seemed a bit of an intractable negative influence Monday, Mr. Putin’s clear signal that he is content for Russia to control (if not indeed ‘own’) the Crimean peninsula once again was a clear sign there would be no more aggressive military action in the near future.

Machiavelli would be proud… he’s declared victory and does not even need to go home, as the treaty with the Ukraine allows Russia a major troop presence in the Crimea. Yet the lack of any ‘hot war’ breaking out in Eastern Europe was enough to send the US equities spiraling higher with the European bourses in reluctant tow. What is most important, and covered at length in today’s TrendView Video, is the success the March S&P 500 future had in pushing not just to a new all-time high, but also above key weekly oscillator resistance in the 1,865-70 range. Today’s video analysis is also a bit of a technical trend tutorial on how major oscillator levels are closely calibrated at times with long term channel lines to provide a real sense of what’s coming next.

The video timeline begins with macro (i.e. fundamental influences) factor discussion of the influences noted above. It also notes the strength of the global economic data that incudes better-than-expected Services PMI’s will likely reinforce the equities strength. This Concise Highlight will only review the equities and govvies, due to both short money forwards and foreign exchange remaining exactly as discussed in Tuesday morning’s TrendView Video analysis and outlook.

It moves on from there to the March S&P 500 future short-term trend view at 02:50 and intermediate-term at 06:00, then the other equities from 10:30, with govvies analysis beginning at 14:00 (including discussion of the significant discounts in the June contracts), and a return to the March S&P 500 future at 20:40 for a final view and additional perspective.

TrendView VIDEO ANALYSIS & OUTLOOK: Tuesday, March 4, 2014 (early)

Global View: All Markets  

Even with the weakness of the equities in Europe yesterday slipping below some near term supports, the US equities managed to hold with only the most temporary slippage back below key technical trend levels. That is a testament to the degree to which the global equities psychology right now (even Europe) seems to be able to surmount even geopolitical disruption to remain bullish. And while the Ukrainian-Crimean turmoil seemed a bit of an intractable negative influence yesterday due to the lack of any effective (or even agreed) constructive path for Western leaders, the markets exerted their own form of discipline.

The pressure on the Russian ruble and stock markets was probably now small influence on Mr. Putin’s decision to defuse the situation by withdrawing some troops and having others stand down from a more aggressive stance (even if they remain in place in the Crimea.) As noted Friday morning, any near term improvement was going to be more along the lines of Henry Kissinger’s famous characterization of the lowered Cold War US-Soviet tensions as détente (lowering of tension) rather than anything resembling peace. Yet that was enough for equities looking for an excuse to return to their bull trends.

The video timeline begins with macro (i.e. fundamental influences) factor discussion of the influences noted above, and also the degree to which the US geographic distance from the center of the problems has left US equities rightfully stronger than the European sisters. It also notes the irony of equities weakness yesterday on strong data and strength today on a very limited bit of weak data (with only US ISM New York pending.) All hail the short term geopolitical influence.  

It moves on from there to the March S&P 500 future short-term trend view at 02:15 and intermediate-term at 04:10, then the other equities from 06:25, with govvies analysis beginning at 09:20 (including discussion of the significant discounts in the June contracts) and short money forwards at 14:40. Foreign exchange begins with the US Dollar Index at 17:10, jumping over to Europe at 18:40 and Asia at 21:20, followed by the cross rates at 25:10, and a return to the March S&P 500 future at 29:40 for a final view and additional perspective.
