Big Picture View
S&P 500 erased intraday downside before the closing bell, and we‘re looking at another lackluster week of sideways to higher price action. The modest rally is getting old in the tooth, but not yet ready for a heavy plunge marking a major buying opportunity. True, credit markets are sorely lagging behind, but the modest risk-on turn (compared to the risk-off high point on Friday), was enough to lift both value and tech. The upswing attempt would probably hesitantly continue later today even if cryptos are a bit wary.
Meanwhile, an odd move was to be seen in precious metals as both gold and silver declined while miners went up. Oil declined but the volume appears drying up as well. Finally, the copper weakness is at odds with better performance across commodities. All in all, we‘re likely to see another broad-based upswing in real assets today and throughout the week as the Strategic Petroleum Reserve release and other headlines give way to realization that this is not the time for precious metals, commodities and similar raw material input (such as fertilizer) prices in various currencies to retreat.
Summing up, lazy day in stocks but a livelier one of a bullish persuasion in real assets, is ahead for today.
There won’t be a regular analysis featuring charts or Twitter activities for most of this week either, but I’m keeping a close eye on the markets and will issue a sound commentary whenever required by the markets on my watch.
Thank you for your patience.
