KEY NOTES & OBSERVATIONS
First and foremost:
This is not investment advice.
A few rare moments per year, there are key inflection points worth paying attention to, due to their potential major consequences for asset markets.
This MAY be one of those moments.
As always, my focus is to look out for these potential moments — FIRST not get caught on the wrong side, SECOND to position for a potential Trend move. In that order of priority.
Pending today’s close, I will begin writing a Mid-Week Update ideally for publication tomorrow/Thursday at the latest — pending market developments.
HANGING BY A THREAD
Key Markets are in position to plunge:
Most of the weakest areas flagged in the Mid-Week Update and the Weekend Review are developing plunge patterns.
As discussed in both reports, it will take very little to confirm a new round of Sell signals here.
I will:
Update the core signals I’m watching
Emphasize the fractured state of markets
Present scenarios if signals are confirmed
Taken together, the weight of evidence is becoming potentially significant at this time.
For long-term investors, a 5-15% decline in the Stock Indexes, with some Sectors doing 2-3x worse, isn’t a major risk.
For tactical traders, it’s the difference between a good year and a bad one.
For institutional investors, sometimes it’s a matter of survival.
Soon I’ll present the evidence — no predictions, no opinions, at a key juncture to watch closely.
It may turn out to be nothing, but in this game it’s always best to be prepared.
Thanks for reading.
Looking forward to any mid-week thoughts! Thanks MC for the timely posts. Hope everyone enjoyed the extendend weekend!
