Weekly Market Recap & Outlook
The paper asset bulls missed another opportunity on Friday, and it’s not about risk aversion before the weekend – cryptos have barely moved since. Credit markets risk off posture has decidedly continued, and coupled with the inflation data and slowing real economy, that’s a a warning sign for stocks. Even though their internals aren’t breaking down head over heels, S&P 500 is in a precarious position, and should / once a key support that I’ll discuss in Monday’s analysis breaks, things would (rather than could) go ugly fast.
That’s in stocks – precious metals and commodities continue consolidating, and the least volatile appreciation opportunity presents the red metal. And it‘s not only about copper – crude oil market is going through supply realignment, and demand is not yet being destroyed on a massive scale. The overnight Erbil events are unlikely to sink black gold’s price either.
Summing up, inflation isn’t decelerating (more on that on Monday), the Fed has less room to move now, and real economy growth is slowing down sharply. Earnings would feel the hot commodity and labor market prices, which doesn’t bode well for a smooth 2022 ride in stocks. Precious metals and commodities, that’s an entirely different story.
Stay tuned for Monday’s extensive analysis, and have a nice rest of the weekend.
