Technical Analysis on NYSE Composite Index, Brazil, Dollar Index, Bond Equity Inversion
NYSE Composite
Quarterly divergences on the NYSE Composite have preceded market corrections
for the US market. The size varied depending on the time period.
Brazil
A Year back I quoted
that I would rather be Long BRIC except the 'I'. From a global perspective that
was right given that the Brazilian Bovespa index almost doubled. So now when
Brazil counts as a completed 5 wave rise where 3<1 and 5<3 I am
concerned. Not long term but for the next year that this market could spend
making a wave 2 decline maybe retracing down to the 61.8% mark near 50000
Dollar Index
The dollar index
opened at the 78.6% retracement mark of the last decline and near the upper
bollinger band, and near the falling trendline from the Dec top. 101.50 is
therefore going to be an important level to decide which side we are headed
from here for the dollar index. The bulls or bears are going to have a run on
the dollar from here. Just get the direction right. Staying below 101.50 I
would think that a major decline starts.
Bond Equity Inversion
I first wrote about this coming inversion at the Dec low in the bond market
however US bonds spent few more months making a double bottom and allowing for
an equity rally. But now the bottom is firmly in place for the coming months
and a bond market rally should keep the pressure on US equities in the coming
weeks.
The near term daily
chart of the US 10 year notes shows the momentum remains in buy mode for weeks
and the rising trendline from the bottom is working as a support.
